Hadieh Shafie: Resonant Turns

Hadieh Shafie uses ink, paint and paper as material for works that abstract text into form, evoking different optical perspectives; her reliefs comprise circular or cone-shaped scrolls inscribed with Farsi poetry and her own writing in acts of concealment, fragmentation and distortion. Her visual language, a form of mark-making, is multi-layered and arises from a profound understanding of words as an energetic charge, colour as emotion, and repetition as a kind of spiritual practice. To 21 April.
