Unveiling Realities is the second online exhibition on Emergeast curated by Nikki & Dima
Unveiling Realities is characterised by Elham’s newly developed approach to painting, born from a place of collective compassion and awareness. Stripped away from distractions and chaos, the last year gave way to new perspectives and approaches to life. “This series reflects the deeper connections I cultivated in the past year. The invisible curtains we all once hid behind have been lifted and new realities unveiled.
“The past year taught us to eliminate extra noise and the unnecessary chaos that surrounds us and focus on what’s meaningful.”
Long Silence, Acrylic on canvas
Called to step back and reinterpret our reality, this artwork urges space between our outer and inner world. “I wanted to feel the silent moments before breaking them."
Wonder Room, Acrylic on canvas
Stripped away from distractions, Elham's characters take centre stage reflecting the slow and steady unraveling of ourselves. "Wonder Room is filled with multi-dimensional characters that fully come to life."
A heightened sense of awareness led Elham to paint with more intention during the pandemic.“I don't let anything go unnoticed, each corner of my painting has a clear direction and contributes to the larger story”.
