ART OF MAZIAR  All we see are shadows.  We live in the world of shadows which our own imaginations create.  There is no such thing as a "blue sky" or a "beautiful day".  These are our own perceptions, our shadow worlds.  What passes through our minds as reality is mythical, meaningless; since it is only contractual concepts that act as proof to our experience of reality. Reality is what we agree for it to be.  Nothing is what it seems to be. Even our very essence is shadow - we are shadows within and without.  And so it is shadows that shape our affections; love blooms in the shadows and dies in the shadows.  So, in this shadow world where illumination is never fully realized, what then is blue? How sweet is the sugar upon your tongue, filtered by the shadow of your perception - as sweet as the sugar on my own shadowed tongue? Are the symbols and signs that we use - languages, cultures, rules and rhythms - enough to pierce through the shadows and share the experience of "blue" or "sweet"? Do our symbols convey our realities, or create them? Our senses are receivers, finely tuned to specific frequencies, friendly to our needs and wants and experiences of groping through the shadows in search of "real". From the first time I saw/heard/felt/ tasted/smelled these shadows, realizing they were but shadows of my own mind's design, I understood that our signs and symbols are the prisms that bend all light rays into shades of gray. So then, it is not the world that is full of shadows; it is ourselves.  We, with our languages, symbols, limitations and assumptions are what blocks the light, disguises what is real.  We are the shadow makers.  With art, I am exploring the shadows that I know¼the ones that occupy my mind, myself¼the shadows within and without the self. I explore them in this collection through the interplay of symbols. Some pieces are meant to invite the viewer into its world, past the exterior symbols that shadow the inner world.    Some pieces are meant to jump out at the viewer, past the shadowing symbols, to challenge the viewer's perceptions of real.    1 | P a g e    ART OF MAZIAR The two works entitled "Days" are meant to convey our perception of time passing, the numbing affect that labeling the days, like calendar entries, has on our perception of time. The postâ€its shadow time - they are reminders of all the "to do's" we use to fill our days and hours. They become time for us¼just labels of what is done and what remains to be done.    The slices of mirror that are on some of the pieces are devices to blend the viewer's own perceived shadows with my own by reflecting his own back to him.   Some of my works are the never ending stories that my mind replays again and again - memories re†experienced through fractured words and spaces. They are unrelated to each other, but coexist in my mind's recording. They play as a constant hum in the background of my daily existence. Memories from my childhood are shown as lights peeking through dark shadows merged with language and sound.      What binds the pieces in this collection together are two key elements: the techniques used to create the art; and the idea of exploring through abstract art the nature of our perceptions, and the way that our shadow†selves influence our experiences of realit

I was born in Rasht a northern city of Iran in 1979. I’ve graduated from LA Film School with a bachelor's in the science of graphic design, however painting was always with me as like as poetry and sculpture. In the way of creating an artwork, I really don’t care what is my medium and material, the best one which could transfer my message to audience, would be the medium and material. But nowadays most medium is painting and in most paintings are acrylic on canvas. I’m using Art as a unit and element, that I talk about it. Also it would be sometimes with sculpture, sometimes with painting or sound or word as a poem. I try to reach to highest level of Art with my artworks that I named it Astonishmentism. Astonishmentism is the top place of creativity and creating artworks that an Artist doesn’t create anything and just watching the nature of the world and world of the nature. In this way, it doesn’t mater to me what I’m useing as a material to creat, anything could be and anywhere is the place of creation. You can follow me on my instagram page; @tonality_atelier
