Galleria Raffaella Cortese is pleased to present the first solo show in Italy by Iranian artist Nazgol Ansarinia.
Ansarinia examines daily life in her town, Tehran: she analyses and recasts everyday objects and events to draw out their relationships with the contemporary Iranian society, investigating the private sphere and its connection to the wider socio-economic and architectural context. The exhibition revolves around three ongoing projects by the artist that well represent her practice and recent developments.
Central to her production are the collages from the Reflections/Refractions series, which visually explore the complexities of everyday life. Geometric designs, often used to evoke beauty in their order and symmetry, are applied to mirror works to distort the reality of anything they reflect.
