The project entitled "The Wind Will Carry Us" is a series combining analogue and archival photography with elements of graphics and collage with floral motifs. The works are a tribute to the artistic group "Yellow Flowers", with which the artist was associated in her youth. The association originated in Iran, and its members often girdled their hair with small yellow flowers that were gathered in the meadows. In this way, Nahid travels backwards in her memories, recreating the plot, the faces, the space, and the moments that, over time, have taken on a new form in her thoughts, have become distant. For her, the title "wind" is a symbol of growing up and the constant changes that occurred in her life.
