Neda has become known as The Angel of Iran, The Angel of Freedom. I was so saddened by the senseless murder of this lovely young woman that I wanted to turn the pain I felt into art. So I sculpted this life size bust of Neda and when it is cast in bronze I hope it can help to memorialize this Angel of Iran. The Iranian government banned Neda's family from even having a memorial for her. However, you will not be forgotten Neda. It is my prayer that countries around the world will hold memorial services for this Angel of Freedom.
Huge events are planned around the globe by "United 4 Iran" on July 25th. Check their website www.United4Iran.com for an event in a large city near you and please attend to support their rallies for greater freedom and democracy in Iran.
