Hymen - Blue & Pink

In this spellbinding series, the artist makes use of simple tarpaulins, found her native Iran, to ingeniously address a most sensitive issue: society’s treatment of women, of their bodies and, as a result, of their psyches.

Engaged by a conceptual approach blending minimalism with a clear aesthetic pursuit, the viewer gradually realizes, from one image to the other, that the wounds and pains inflicted on a young woman’s most intimate anatomy will not only leave on the victim a durable physical mark, but also have on her a profound and long-lasting psychological impact.

Hymen - Bleu & Rose

Dans cette série envoûtante, l’artiste a utilisé de la toile goudronnée telle qu’on en trouve en Iran, sa terre natale. Ce matériau lui a semblé tout indiqué pour illustrer la maltraitance physique, et donc psychologique, dont la femme fait trop souvent l’objet.

À la fois minimaliste et préoccupée d’esthétique, l’approche conceptuelle de cette série nous fait prendre conscience, au fil des œuvres, que les blessures et la douleur infligées aux parties les plus intimes de l’anatomie d’une jeune femme marquent leur victime, inexorablement, d’une empreinte à la fois physique et psychologique indélébile.
