Iran-UK arts, crafts show ‘Songs of Big Ben’ opens virtually
A unique online exhibition, ‘Songs of Big Ben’, showcasing visual arts and crafts from Iran and the UK, opened on October 29.
The exhibition, which will run until November 5, presents 47 works by 37 artists and aims to go beyond traditional visual experiences.
The ‘Songs of Big Ben’ exhibition was organized by the Luminart Art Group, the Iranian Center for Creative Tourism, and Roma Pulse, with Mina Aalipour as the curator.
Aalipour explained that the artworks were carefully selected for their immersive qualities. “If you pay close attention to these pieces, it’s almost as if they have sounds of their own,” she said.
Aalipour also shared that a virtual reality tour has been created to enhance the online experience, describing it as a “souvenir and gift from our team to the artists.”
Artists featured in the show include Ali Khosravani Dehkordi, Alma Ghasemi, Amir Reza Ganjifard, Atefeh Niliyani, Avishan Behroozi, Elaheh Ramezani-Zadeh Kermani, Elaheh Pour Aminaei, and several others.
Songs of Big Ben is accessible on Instagram, on Telegram, and through a virtual gallery on Artsteps.
