ABOUT THE ARTWORK

“ Badri Valian “ during her exhibition at Art Venture Gallery had several talks about the 3 different visual tools on her art....The tools which guided her to move forward: First *The process of her painting over a single day and its limits and advantages Second *The specific physical movements which she had hassled to make her body exhausted , influenced , broken and creative . Third *The memories , the significant memories which she is been dealing with those over the many years . In "Downward Dog" she is challenging herself while she is been balancing on "Ashtanga" and "Vinyasa" poses. Her experience as a professional mountain climber in Himalaya moves her to peacefulness and gratitude.... She remembers witnessing a lot of mountain people in Himalaya who they live in peace with the minimum amount of food and belonging properties , almost nothing ... She is detecting that happiness and peace on this performance and artworks. Please ,find the related video on Youtube. Just enter the name of artist " Badri Valian" and " Downward Dog " to watch the steps of her creativity . The Sounds on video have been recorded by her camera in Everest B.C ...

Human body and its movements are the most intricate, sophisticated structures our eyes are exposed to. The fluidness and continuity of human movements along with the shapes the body takes during these movements, create a picture in our eyes full of smooth curves musically related to each other. This is what I try to capture in my work blending the body and its motions with music I hear and the rapture I feel in my mind . "Family Dreams" Project's statement : Today’s society is a conglomeration of children of yesterday. The children who witness the interactions and relations between their parents and other family members. The child’s memory is full of colors juxtaposing patterns shaped by the surrounding characters and deformed by their personalities. Reminiscing those memories bring tears to her eyes instead of smiles to her face. She finds her soul crushing under the pressure of pain, watching her mother’s detestable and odious treatment of her father. She sees her father desperately trying to bond the family together and to prevent its disintegration while the mother is ripping it apart with her unbearable sorrow, extreme anxieties, and hate. The mother’s shape is warped and distorted. The father is a collection of soft curves that do not belong to their rightful place and seem scattered and disoriented. The rest of the family fills gaps of the palette wherever the mother leaves them spaces to be and to breathe. And mother’s agitations force the children to swarm to any gaps they find in the palette where they can find some peace. Today, these children have grown to be adults. They see themselves as the harvest of what was sown years ago by those who touched their life. Recognizing the edicts of color and form, they try to portray on every palette, the story of a day of life, more sad than happy, long gone but still fresh in their mid and soul.
