Khazaie’s solo show is inspired by nature, particularly by trees that bend in the face of wind and storms yet do not break. These symbolise resilience and flexibility; just as in life, people too change under pressure and harsh conditions, being guided towards new paths. The artist’s craftsmanship and thoughtful use of wood create pieces that are both grounded and transformative, resonating with the themes of survival, adaptation, and silent strength. As curator Farshad Mahoutforoush writes; “Trees that yield in storms, yet continue to grow, became a metaphor for how we as humans navigate change. This exhibition is my reflection on the ways we adapt, redirect, and find new shapes for ourselves under pressure … Through these works, I wanted to explore how softness can be strength, and how being \u2018upside down\u2019 might simply mean seeing things differently”.<\/p>\n
