Cover story  Write for The Iranian Taraneh Hemami "My art has become a vehicle to find something that I lost twenty years ago -- when I immigrated to this country. Through my work I re-connect to a history that is significant to me and defines my sensibilities, my emotional landscape, and the language of my thoughts. Through my art, I connect to the patterns of my culture and the historical motifs of my people. I connect and redefine Islamic patterns and structures, Persian rituals , customs, language and its ancient mythology in a new way." Hemami is an Iranian born Bay area artist. She received her masters degree in Painting from California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland in 1991.
