Description


This striking ink drawing by Sadequain is from his celebrated Crow Series, a body of work that explores moral decay, paralysis, and the loss of human agency. The image depicts a human head—calm, pensive, and immobilized—serving as a nest for crows, with a bird perched above and eggs nestled within a tangled crown of hair.

Sadequain uses this surreal and haunting symbolism to convey the idea of mental and spiritual stagnation. The crow, often a sign of decay and opportunism, becomes here a metaphor for domination—its presence on the human head suggesting how ignorance, corruption, and complacency have taken root in the very seat of intellect.

The composition’s delicate balance between elegance and unease intensifies its impact: the soft, downward-tilted profile contrasts with the chaos above, embodying a civilization beautiful in form but hollow in spirit.

Through this single, unforgettable image, Sadequain encapsulates his critique of a society where thought has been subdued and the human soul turned into a perch for darkness.
