2004 Archive

Between 2002 and 2003, Ettehad, during his travels across Iran, recorded videos of domes, fountains, tile-work, weavings, colorful Iranian fabrics, inscriptions, and ancient historical texts. These images were eventually placed within a kaleidoscope, and the output transformed into an analog video. This video was showcased on a vintage television. Decorative elements from Iranian ritualistic traditions were added to the video. This video art was first exhibited in Tehran in 2004.
