- PARSA KHALILI
Constructions
Bildraum 07, Vienna 2024
Artist and architect Parsa Khalili experiments with the perception of surface effects, formal transformations and spatial ambiguities at multiple scales - from drawings and large-format paintings to buildings.
Khalili’s current body of work Constructions arises from a rigorous process of layering linework and planes of color that create the illusion of space. Obscured alignments and subtle shifts in composition are juxtaposed with abrupt transitions to unsettle the eye.
The exhibition Constructions plays with contingent imbalances that force one to search for stability and coherency - without resolution. It is a restless, probing work—in its production but also in its reception. Parsa Khalili’s experiments intend to blur the differences between drawings and paintings as representations of space and as formal and spatial products unto themselves, yielding a body of work that is both systematic and unexpected.
