Here There Nowhere, Flaccid Means Without End : Ali AhadiTools Tabrizi, Ahmad. Here There Nowhere, Flaccid Means Without End : Ali Ahadi. Vancouver, BC: Grunt Gallery, 2012.
Abstract (English)"This exhibition is comprised of multiple series of black and white photographs and a video that address the personal and sociopolitical context of working as an artist in contemporary Iranian-middle eastern culture. The sequencing of the photos fosters a subtle narrative effect in each series. The subjects addressed in the photos include embodied cultural and social confusion; alienation in a “wired” world; and loss of beauty in a socially restricted life. In these series, which are strongly affected by the political situation of Iran, after the wane of the recent social movement, Ahadi strives to represent the sociopolitical truth of his country through a number of personal spaces dominated by a profound sense of confusion and uncertainty; the truth, which is shining in the absence of those commotions." -- Publisher's website.
