Caravan Art refers to a way of life in which a group of people live together, adapting to the environment, circumstances, and resources that each place provides. They are constantly moving from place to place, sustaining their lives through migration. This lifestyle is common in Central Asia, including Afghanistan. Although these people often live unstable lives and cannot stay in one location for long, they are remarkably respected by others for the strength and wisdom gained through their journeys.

This painting is my reinterpretation and tribute to that way of life, often reminding me of our Afghan people who have had to leave their loved ones and our beautiful country, never knowing when they might return. Through bold colors that convey deep emotions, I wanted to express the strength and resilience of all Afghan immigrants. I hope you can also feel the warmth and traditional spirit that this artwork embodies.
