Every Pawn is a potential Queen

Every Pawn is a potential Queen
We all willing to improve a part of our lives that we are not satisfied with. Some try to improve the situation and move forward, Other may accept the existing conditions and stay the same. I believe those who makes the effort would eventually alter the position and will enjoy the fruits of their hard work.
The initial idea of project formed to show one of my belief "anything we can think of is possible to reach" 
For this purpose I used a two-dimensional drawing that comes to life. 
Then, by examining the "promotion of the pawn." I made some changes in Project implementation process.
Why did I choose chess?
Chess is a symbol of thought, in this game, our choices determine the destiny of the game, not luck. Therefore the ultimate fate of each player is in their hands. It means that thinking and decisions paly an important role in this game not just luckiness.
The pawn is the weakest piece in the chess, but if it goes to the bottom of the page, it can be promoted to one of the most powerful chess pieces like the Queen. And change the fate of the game. By choosing this pawn, I wanted to say that even if we have the weakest position, if we try, the highest level is reachable.
Calligraphy in Margin
In the margin of the chessboard, I make use of calligraphy to write a poem by Sheikh Mahmoud Shabestari intending to bring the atmosphere of project closer to the Iranian culture, which beautifully refers to the concept of reliance.
The poem Meaning is:  Ask yourself whatever you desire.

Calligraphy was done both digitally and on paper.
