Irani paints the 'sense of a model' because the government of Iran is against the representation of the female body, specifically nudity. Irani expresses the pains, protest, and tragic situations.
What attracts me is color, texture, and the grotesque bulges of skin. Enjoy!
Weekly Drawing: "Happy Birthday!"
We've all had different experiences in our childhood, I for one hated having my picture taken and birthday parties were the worst. Not only was my picture being taken, but everyone was watching me. I felt their eyes piercing my soul as I opened their gift, trying to see if I liked it. Shyness produced many awkward photos in my youth, especially school photos. When I come across painful expressions or oafish poses in photos of children I can't help but relate.
Love the idea of these awkward poses, maybe where the "staged" gives way briefly and something unintended spills out. It's one of the things cameras do best!
