About somayeh salehi : Every person's dream shows who he is, and Somayeh Salehi wishes to do something for the Persian carpet, which is the heritage of Iranian women.

They have hidden all their dreams, sorrows, joys and regrets in the carpet and he wants to discover the hidden paradise of Iranian women and show its beauty to others.
STATEMENT OF ART:
In all the years of my educational and artistic activity, I have moved forward with the belief that the carpet is more than a rug, and I am still trying to discover the different aspects of the carpet as a work of art, and for this, interdisciplinary activity is required, so I look forward to collaborating with other artists.
