Statement:

What is the point of the flower exhibiting itself on the scene of a field / If there is no side gaze coming at it from the eyebrows’ frame

-Nooshin Asgari, Serminaz Barseghian and Aylar Dastgiri

O Gallery presents “Out/Lashes”, the result of a decade-long collaboration between Nooshin Askari (b. 1989, Tehran), Serminaz Barseghian (b. 1987, Tehran) and Aylar Dastgiri (b. 1988, Tehran). Together they examine the idea of the frame through different mediums of drawing, painting, sculpture and video. In referring to the frame itself they point out the theatricality of their mediums and subject matters. Embellishing the vision, eyelashes acknowledge the presence of a body. This body is a further decoration to establish and communicate the role it takes towards interpretation. What it wears, the tools it chooses, where it stands… all play an active role in the content this presence creates.
