Typo installation of Nima Youshij’s -Ali Esfandiari- Poems

Motion video projected on fabrics in 11 rows with 3 by 3 meter each and performance during the show

The simultaneity of Modern poetry -White poetry- with American artistic tendency to minimal art in this period, and the common feeling which I have felt at time of watching the minimal works and the study of Nima‘s poetries trigered me make a series of works which are started with some sketches for my BA final project. The goal of treating some parts of poetry is providing interest and curiosity for the viewer and the reader, and as said by “Arthur Rambo”; “we shall be modern absolutely”. The sight angel and luminescence have been determined by personal style; certainly other spaces obtain in different aspects. This design is kind of thinking concerning space, its dimension, levels and light passing canal. This survey is comprehensive and continuum and proposed to prove the superiority of space to its form, and place superiority on things. This space can be paper and its established work beside alphabet and image. This art is a direct method which gives meanings to an artistic work by creating its attendance and reality by referring to it.

At first stage these designs are considered as initial ideas in a catalouge for the show, and I intend to exhibit the main idea which is making space by using typefaces, color, light , sound and creating a three dimensional space mixed with type and materials as anthology installation series.
