Eco(ed) Visions Group Exhibition Explores Urban-Nature Tensions
The group exhibition 'Eco(ed) Visions' at Canvas presents works by Ali Akbar Sadeghi, Fereydoun Ave, Hadieh Shafie, Hashel Al Lamki, Salé Sharifi, and Sasan Abri, addressing the relationship between urbanization and nature. Curated around the idea that nature has become a leisure destination in a human-centric world, the show features pieces like Al Lamki's 'Under The Mango Tree' (2023), a tribute to his grandfather's off-grid living. Sadeghi's 'Dream III' critiques control over bodies, while Ave's paper works and Shafie's interconnected forms explore art filling nature's void. Sharifi's 'Onlooker' depicts disrupted garden scenes, and Abri's 'Upside Down' offers hope. The exhibition runs at an unspecified venue and date, with the image courtesy of the artist and The Mine.
