ABOUT THE ARTWORK

In May 2021, Alireza Fazeli Monfared, a 20-year-old who identified as a non-binary gay man, was abducted and murdered by several family members seemingly on the basis of his sexual orientation and gender identity. Reports suggest that Alireza, who had been subjected to years of discrimination and abuse for his sexuality and gender non-conformity, was just days away from leaving Iran to seek asylum abroad before his identity was discovered after a family member opened a letter to Alireza exempting him from military service. Under Iranian law, ‘sexual perversions and homosexuality’ are considered a mental illness and are grounds for military exemption.

Imanuel Scheiko is an Iranian visual artist. The current phase of his artistic journey began when he moved to Germany in 2009 and dove deeper into exploring the intersections of culture. Scheiko blends the ancient visuals of Persian carpet weaving with the complexities of life in Berlin. He draws direct inspiration from his experience as a wedding photographer and translator for refugees. The sobering chaos of iconic Persian patterns invites the viewer on a quest of perceptive discovery. Scheiko's work plays with elements of paradox; seemingly symmetrical and harmonious but ultimately human in its essence.The artist remains deliberately expressive in form and color, and at the same time engages with story and narrative. He uses these components to extend his culturally open approach to the viewer.
