Abstract
The MFA thesis writing reflects how accessing memories assists me in constructing a new visual language for my representational paintings. Through the process of collecting visual references of objects, space and figures, from auto-ethnographic sources to Persian miniatures, I had the opportunities to look at their historical and cultural backgrounds and compose images that reflect my socio-political state. Material experimentations with surface qualities, sizes, as well as paint applications, let me experience different visual characters to bring more sensibility to my image. These layers of visual meaning and narrative are also trying to construct a historical account from my particular generation’s experiences. During an iterative studio process I was inspired to bring chaos to composition and appreciate uncertainty in mark-making. These methodologies also helped me to construct the unsettling expression that overlaps with the titles and small poems (translated from Farsi) that echoed my lived experiences. |
