Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This black-and-white photographic artwork depicts a striking industrial interior scene with a sense of decay and abandonment. The composition features a dominant arched structure in the background, creating a sense of depth and perspective. The foreground showcases various debris and discarded objects, hinting at the passage of time and the transformation of the space. The overall style and technique suggest a documentary approach, capturing the raw and gritty essence of the abandoned industrial setting. This piece likely reflects the artist's intention to explore themes of urban decay, the ephemerality of human-made structures, and the resilience of nature in reclaiming these spaces. ...

Artist
Behjat Sadr
B.1924

A pioneer in visual arts in Iran, Behjat Sadr created abstract oil paintings characterised by thick, layered colour strokes, sometimes using palette knife and her hand instead of brushes, depicting recurring shapes and geometric configurations. Influenced by the cities she lived in – Tehran, Rome and Paris – Sadr’s practice traced experimentation with media, simplicity and innovation associated with modernism and juxtapositions and complexities of the 20th century. One of the first women to emerge on the international biennale scene in the early 1960s, Sadr’s practice resonates with a sense of radicality, sensitive to the times of emancipation and insurrection. Inspired by the 1960s movements of Kinetic and Opt art, the artist experimented with mirror and light movement, compositions on wooden shutters and cloths. Her versatility further spreads to her play with small-scale photo-paintings and photomontage. Always searching for novelties in artistic expression, Sadr’s multifaceted practice was an ode to harmony, dynamics, shape and movement. ...
