"Piece is a Choice?!” is an animated version of an original physical painting in which I tried to express my feeling about women’s fight in Iran for their fundamental human rights and equality, after the Islamic revolution of 1979, for the last 43 years.

The female dancer in the painting has her fist up to ask for women’s stolen rights while she is holding a rose as a sign of a peaceful protest. The blood splatter in the background represents the violence that has been forced upon her by the oppressors. The choice of dark red for the composition was to convey the extreme state of emotion women are facing in Iran.
“Is peace a choice when we're facing a fight for human rights?”
