Kamyar Sadeghi’s painting exhibition ‘Redefining’ opens in Tehran
At the exhibition, as many as 24 design works (metal pen on paper) and paintings using acrylic and oil techniques by Sadeghi, with nature as their theme, were displayed.
"By and large, wherever I go, I carry my watercolor supplies with me, and whenever I find an opportunity, I feel more comfortable working with watercolors when I go into nature. The works in this exhibition are a continuation of the watercolor pieces I displayed in my previous exhibitions. For this reason, I painted some of my watercolor works, which I also wanted to re-experience creating with oil paints, using acrylic and oil techniques, and the result is this exhibition," said Kamyar Sadeghi, nephew of the late Habibollah Sadeghi, as he spoke about the exhibit and the mood of his works.
Elaborating on working with nature as a subject, Sadeghi said, “Working in nature is a special experience with a unique atmosphere, but when an artist has mastery over painting nature, they can also paint nature from a photograph, provided it doesn't become merely a copy of the photo. That is, the final output should not be an exact reflection or representation of the photo, and the artist themselves should have the intelligence to be seen in the work, so that the work is not merely a representation of a photograph. In the works I did in winter, I had to work on them from photographs.”
Those interested in visiting the works can go to Tehran’s Hozeh Honari on Somayeh Street from Saturday to Wednesday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., until June 20, 2025.
