The Portrait

What Yasaman asks of its bearer

The first letter of Yasaman is Ya — an outward self of strong personality. Beneath the surface, Alif brings an originary axis at the interior; Seen brings an interior of asking. These are the inward currents the name carries. And Yasaman closes on Nun: the life resolves into what is preserved and written. What this asks of her: to let jasmine pass through this whole sequence — opening, interior, close — until it is no longer a label but a way of being.
