The Taking is a faux-museum installation of 29 painted fragments with accompanying wall text. Each fragment depicts a detail of actual source material primarily Western in origin— chosen for its connection to the rich visual legacy of Iran and its neighbors. The museum-like wall text treats Persian and Iraqi contributions as central. The Taking is about acknowledging forgotten sources, challenging exceptionalism and biases in art history, and the need to build a new narratives.
