at one point in the distant past (specifically the year 2017), i used twitter as an art medium for thoughts.
one evening at artist ali sabet’s studio, we conceived a project where these words would channel
images instantly, from one medium into another, a collaboration in the truest sense of the word.
it was a spontaneous approach between word & art, within the confines of minimal characters & white space.
we discussed the production of a limited-edition, pretty & compact art book as the conclusion.
a draft was quickly put together. the images flowed.
then, time past. ephemera.
nearly forgotten, a text ignited the memory.
so i decided to put out this manuscript, nearly untouched from edits, with the same ethos that composed it.
here lay words by amir motlagh, art by ali sabet, from the past, into the future.

is this love?
if i thought about cinema differently, i would produce long-form in exacting intervals, but the blending of time into a creative act is essence
from outside, its no activity & then, massive activity, compressed time
from inside, a single movement

Welcome friends to a New Year (the first of two) and thank you for riding with me. I appreciate you & I wish you peace, creativity & clarity.
Today, I release two limited editions, signed, 12”x12” giclee art prints of “sat ori” & “LET ME GO” reproduced on museum-quality archival paper.
They are shipping worldwide with a certificate of authenticity in an edition of 44. Roughly 40 remain of each.
You are going to love having these two (or at least 1) somewhere in your space bestowing upon you goodwill, love & intrigue.
It’s been several years since I last released art prints, but I felt this is a good time to return to physical, tangible stuff. I have plans….with that said Click Here or on the bold, all-caps ADD TO CART below to transport you to the correct destination.
