“Dreams of the Silkworm” is a mesmerizing canvas wall art inspired by the words of Hossein Monzavi, one of Iran’s most beloved contemporary poets. The poem tells a touching story of longing and the bittersweet beauty of dreams—the little silkworm that weaves its own cage while dreaming of flight. The artwork captures this emotional depth through a blend of Persian calligraphy and symbolic imagery. The handwritten calligraphy was first created on paper, then digitally enhanced and woven into the final composition.
The design features a deep celestial blue background, swirling like a starry night sky, contrasted with golden tones that bring warmth and hope. A delicate, leafless tree in winter stands against the cosmic swirl, symbolizing patience, endurance, and unfulfilled dreams.
Created exclusively by Artorang, this piece combines traditional Persian aesthetics with modern digital artistry. Printed on premium canvas, it is available in multiple sizes to fit any home or gallery space.
Here is the English translation of the poem featured in this artwork:
What a sorrowful fate —the little silkworm spent its whole life weaving a cage,
yet all it ever dreamed of was flying.
Hossein Monzavi
چه سرنوشت غم انگیزی که کرم کوچک ابریشم
تمام عمر قفس می بافت، ولی به فکر پریدن بود
حسین منزوی
