Embodiment

Solo exhibition of Nastaran Safaei

Opening on 13th June 2025

The human figures, which began their journey with body prints titled “Beyond and Above” about ten years ago, now rest alongside their complementary sculptures in “Embodiment”. Sometimes powerful, bold, and deliberate, and sometimes under pressure and with great burden, they have inevitably found a new existence. What simmers inside us, flows through all the layers of our changing body. Skin, as the outermost layer of the body – like a work of art – communicates with the outside world. In contact with the skin on an external surface such as paper or fabric, an unrepeatable and unique image, with help of paint and ink, is recorded in the moment, which may vastly differ from the actual shape of our body. An attempt to visualize the complexity of our relationship with the outside world, which is reflected in imaginary lines and dots, all the time exploring the border lines of identity and power dynamic
