Statement:

Dubai, UAE – Leila Heller Gallery is delighted to announce the upcoming solo exhibition, a curated selection of artworks by Bahar Sabzevari titled Ancestral Algorithms’ opening on 27th January 2026.

Ancestral Algorithms explores the evolution of communication across time—from myth, nature, and ancestral memory to artificial intelligence and constructed systems. 

Drawing parallels between ancient storytelling and contemporary technologies, the series reflects on how both myths and machines are human-made frameworks designed to transmit knowledge, shape belief systems, and ensure survival.

By bringing together organic forms, mechanical structures, and symbolic networks, the work situates the viewer in a space between nature and technology, where memory, awareness, and connection continue to reorganize themselves in new forms.
