Shahrzad Safian: Enough As I am

7.-30.4. Hyvän mielen talolla

Tervetuloa tutustumaan huhtikuun näyttelyyn Hyviksen aukioloaikoina ma klo 10-16, ti klo 10-18, ke klo 10-16, to-pe klo 10-15.

Taiteilija kertoo: "This exhibition explores the relationship between the body, identity, and social media. In today’s world, social media has become an important part of many people's daily lives. While it connects us, it can also create pressure through comparison and unrealistic beauty standards. Many people, especially women, may begin to see themselves through these filtered images and feel disconnected from their real bodies.

This exhibition is divided into three parts:

Pressure

The first section reflects the emotional impact of social media, feelings of being watched, judged, and influenced by others.

Reality

The second section focuses on the real body. Through sculptures and mixed media works, it shows how the body changes over time, through growth, aging, pregnancy, scars, and personal experiences. These changes are presented not as flaws, but as natural parts of being human.

Acceptance

The final section moves toward acceptance. Here, the body is seen with more freedom, softness, and connection to growth. It invites the viewer to let go of unrealistic expectations and embrace themselves as they are.

At the end of the exhibition, a mirror invites viewers to see themselves — not with judgment, but with kindness.

You are enough, just as you are!
