About the Item
Sold unframed.
For Shirin Neshat, "art became a kind of an excuse to build a relationship, even from a distance," to her homeland and history. Neshat grew up in pre-revolutionary Iran, then came to the U.S. as a student in the 1970s and is now an internationally recognized artist
For this image, the artist says: "This image was actually created, one of the first images that I produced. It was in 1993. It's called "Offered Eyes." And was the poetry that inspired me to shoot this photograph. The poem is called "I Feel Sorry for the Garden," obviously, the garden being a metaphor for a woman."

Shirin Neshat
Shirin Neshat, born on March 26, 1957, in Qazvin, Iran, is a pioneering artist whose work transcends cultural, political, and artistic boundaries. Raised amidst the turbulence of the Iranian Revolution and the Iran-Iraq War, Neshat's experiences deeply influenced her exploration of identity, gender, and power in her art. Her iconic works often feature veiled women juxtaposed with symbols of defiance, challenging stereotypes and advocating for social change. Despite facing censorship and criticism, Neshat remains steadfast in her commitment to using art as a tool for commentary. Through her photography, films, and installations, she invites viewers to engage with the complexities of the human experience, reflecting on themes of exile, displacement, and the universal struggle for freedom and self-expression. Shirin Neshat's journey from a young woman navigating revolution to an internationally renowned artist is a testament to resilience, creativity, and the enduring pursuit of truth.
