ABOUT THE ARTWORK

my interest to draw spectacled people was started when I went to an optician’s for changing my glasses. I understood that how much effective the glasses are on our perception apart from their form attraction, and I remembered one of my childhood memories. Wearing glasses is one of the mysterious curiosities of people in childhood and I wasn’t exception. I can remember that I pretended to low vision in school’s per capita optometry. Glasses were a personable sign for me. Gradually this childlike personable feeling was exchanged with man’s though and recognized that man can see as much as they know. (Our perceive border is our vision border)

Foroozan Shirghani (b. 1981, Shirvan, Iran) is a multidisciplinary artist working mostly in drawing, painting, sculpture, sewing, video and installation art. Her work usually stems from her personal experiences and mainly focuses on psychological and socio-political issues, especially identity challenges in today’s individual and social life. The objects have a symbolic nature in her works and imply social behaviors. Her previous project entitled "Gaze" deals with the subject of glasses. Her portraits stare from behind multi-purpose glasses with a hesitant look elsewhere. These differing glasses, when overlapped, present a vision beyond vision. Using compressed plastic bottles as inspiration, her current project entitled “Alienation”, explores ideas of fragmentation and alienation of human identity in the present day. An identity which gradually leads to the collapse of the body and alienation from itself and others. As an immigrant artist, she addresses these life-altering situations formally with fragmentation, deformation and eventually destruction of her subjects. The bodies she creates exist in an apocalyptic world where time, place and even the very appearance of humanity does not exist.
