Close Your Eyes, Heal In A Parallel World
Close Your Eyes, Heal In A Parallel World
by Firouzeh Saremifar
‘Close Your Eyes, Heal In A Parallel World’ is a body of work that explores the intimate connection between the human spirit and the natural world. The exhibition features 3D acrylic paintings created with woodcut techniques and steel sculptures that merge material strength with emotional delicacy.
Rooted in moments of personal reflection, the series draws inspiration from the quiet transition before sunrise—when darkness slowly yields to the first light of dawn. This fleeting time, filled with stillness and subtle transformation, becomes a metaphorical threshold between struggle and renewal. Through tactile surfaces and sculptural depth, artist Firouzeh Saremi Far captures the sensory language of nature—the hush of rivers, the rustle of wind, the scent of earth and rain—as an invitation to pause, breathe, and reconnect.
In a world defined by haste and disconnection, this work offers a space for restoration. Nature becomes both subject and collaborator, a mirror through which resilience and healing are reflected. Rather than escaping hardship, the artist’s practice embraces it, transforming it into form, texture, and light. ‘Close Your Eyes, Heal In A Parallel World’ invites viewers into a realm where fragility meets strength, and where the quiet rhythms of nature remind us of the enduring capacity to renew.
