Statement:

In latest works of Arezoo Shahdadi color and light are saturated to evoke emotions and to flatten the visual plane. The cascading levels of paintings are meant to create more dynamic and engaging experience for the viewer.

There is a depth in these layers of dots and lines which creates a more immersive and magical experience.

Artist writes:

I believe there is a concept behind every experience, a place that is neither seen nor tamed by words. The unconscious mind, to me, is a fluid realm like water.

Like water, sometimes calm and clear, sometimes dark and turbulent, just when you think you know it, it changes direction, flows away, or silently joins another stream.

For me, water is a metaphor for this hidden unconscious, where the past, present, and future swirl and images, feelings, and dreams pass by quietly; Not for quick exploration and discovery, but for surrendering to peace and patience and seeing what reveals itself without any effort or desire.
