Pomegranates with Buta ornament

Project series of works Azerbaijani carpet

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