Eyes

An eye, when it is generated rather than drawn, becomes a portrait — anatomical, precise, quietly yours.

I am an Iranian-born artist working at the intersection of classical ornament and generative systems. My work begins with a simple observation: the eye — layered, radial, endlessly varied — has always carried the structure of a mandala. From the mosaics of ancient temples to the concentric rings of a columbarium, the eye is one of the oldest systems of ornamental computation we have.

Eyes is a seed-based generative system that translates that structure into code. Each composition is built from a single eye — an outer sclera ring, a gradient-filled iris base, three concentric iris layers of increasing detail, a black pupil, and a highlight reflection. The result is a single portrait — a small, quiet face, drawn entirely by algorithm.

The sclera tone, the iris palette, the iris layer density, and the highlight position are all derived from a single numeric seed. Each piece can be regenerated, documented, and adapted for textile, print, and surface applications — from scarves and yardage to wallpaper and archival print.
