Self Portrait Framed, Frame, broken glass, carved arabic writing, acrylic paint

My tutor gave me a random object and a deadline of one week to do something creative with it. The object was a small frame. I painted the glass black and used a scriber to create an etched effect on the glass panel. I then framed a small painting of the kurdish flag with arabic text. I reapeated arabic text on the frame by carving the wood with a lino cutting tool. The glass is broken on purpose. I managed to break the glass in four pieces representing the major countries that make up Kurdistan. The following image makes this clearer.
