Nasim Hantehzadeh at Pippy Houldsworth Gallery, London: November 18, 2022 – January 7, 2023

 

At Pippy Houldsworth Gallery, don’t miss Iranian-American artist Nasim Hantehzadeh’s first UK solo show, consisting of captivating works in oil, pastel and graphite on both canvas and paper. Inspired by Paleolithic cave paintings, indigenous art from Mexico and ancient Persian rug patterns, among other things, Hantehzadeh’s work contains “moving narratives that examine the shifting spaces that coalesce around identity, personhood, sexuality and race,” the gallery explains, “eschewing dogmatic binaries in favour of a more nuanced approach to gender that has much in common with the natural world.”
