The work combined one of the main animals of Azerbaijan and the carpet ornament of different regional groups. This picture gives its viewer a life-affirming mood. The bright palette conveys a southern temperament, a bold character. A somewhat decorative work, in the folk style, at the same time retains the volume, as if it speaks of the fullness of meaning and translates the elements and patterns of the carpet of Azerbaijan.

The painting combines two important national symbols: garnet and buta. It was a conscious, though very spontaneous, decision to combine them on the host in a modern interpretation. Pomegranate, a beautiful juicy fruit, symbolizes fertility and wealth. "Buta" is an Azerbaijani national pattern that resembles an almond nut and is an important part of the Azerbaijani ornament. The aesthetic interpretation of the elements has a very deep meaning and symbolism.

Diptych. My first job was in the project "Azerbaijani Carpet", where I started experimenting with the elements of carpet ornament. Pomegranate and figs are cult fruits of great importance in the culture of the Azerbaijani people. The work carries aesthetics and a deep semantic meaning, which is conveyed by hand-written elements and a combination of colors.
