Iranian visual artist Farzad Kohan on using social media in art practise, and challenging the self through a fragile new medium.

And when history burns inside my clothes

and when blue nails grow inside my books,

I cry out to the day,

“Who are you, who tosses you

into my virgin land?”

And inside my book and on my virgin land

I stare into a pair of eyes made of dust.

I hear someone saying,

“I am the wound that is born

and grows as your history grows.” -- Adonis
