>Wandering in the Dark<

Going back to renaissance paintings, the artist started to make her own interpretations of the works. Trying to keep her sense of humor alive, she created silly plots, horses running after people, angels being naughty and humans confused and lost.
What originally started as hundreds of 10×10 cm drawings, covering the only available wall of her bedroom, took on a different path upon her move to a much larger space out of town. There, she found herself surrounded by green lands and a very blue sky, freeing her from previous mental blocks.
Unlike her previous collection, the current exhibition is mostly made up of works on paper accompanied by only one soft sculpture, very well expressing the artist’s journey in trying to find her own unique visual language.

The Plant Who Wished to Be an Animal. A white creature, made of stem, seedling and a bit of root, brought about this story into my mind. I found this creature in some soil left in a dark, dry place for a long time. It had grown without water and light. In this greenhouse, there are other plants that start moving in pursuit of light; by way of experience they realize that liquids other than water can boost their growth, they collect minerals and nutrients from animal carcasses, and at times they even go hunting. Some of them become a part of some other creature’s body in a bizarre way.

This site-specific project reflects on memories of nature, recreating a mountain as it was remembered from childhood. It offers a way of looking back along the line of memory and considering the fragility of what we once encountered, experiences that feel dreamlike and at times unreal. The project was made possible in collaboration with Mohsen Gallery, Tehran.
