Melloona is a realm shaped by abundance.
At first glance, it appears bright and lush – a vast field of growth where vines stretch outward and heavy fruit gathers across the land.
Yellow melon blooms dominate the landscape, glowing warmly in the light.
Here and there, close to the ground, smaller blossoms shimmer in unexpected rainbow hues.
Not all growth is good. Not all sweetness is safe.
Melloona exists between these truths – abundance and imbalance, beauty and quiet corruption.
Visitors are invited to take their time.
To look closer.
And to decide for themselves what is still natural…
and what never was.

War-hungry Revolutionary Guard maintains its grip on Iran as US holds to fragile cease-fire





Doge slashing of humanities grants in 2025 ruled biased and unconstitutional
US judge says halt of $100m in funds allotted by Congress for scholars, writers and research illegal and discriminatory
A federal judge ruled on Thursday that the terminations of hundreds of humanities grants last year by the Trump administration’s so-called “department of government efficiency” (Doge) were unconstitutional and involved “blatant” discrimination.
