WE WATCHIN (103)

Farshad Farzankia paints symbols of both personal and political significance; ancient Persian symbols such as tulips, roses, birds, and human figures. The signs are numerous but precise, rendered in bold colors and expressive strokes. Many of the signs and symbols that appear in the paintings represent, in many ways, the complex reality we all find ourselves in. Namely, a reality that points in many directions and possibilities with numerous solutions. Solutions that can come with an understanding and acceptance of the complexity of others and the differences between us. In some way, the exhibition tries to connect these questions and differences in one common room, in the spirit of hope. The whole world assembled as a united we, all watching together.
