I CLOSE MY EYES TO SEE - Ausstellung Allerstrasse 38, 12049, Berlin

Ausstellung Galerie Luisa Catucci Gallery

Parsa Hosseinpour is an Iranian artist currently participating in the three-month residency
program at the Artlab of Luisa Katucci Gallery in Berlin. Her work has always captivated us, and
her participation in this residency is a long-anticipated and meaningful addition.
Parsa’s practice is rooted in painting, where her primary subject is a solitary woman. This
recurring figure, while not a direct self-portrait, often reflects the artist’s inner world and personal
exploration of identity and emotion, becoming universal through her artistic practice. Her works
convey themes of introspection, isolation, and connection, capturing global human experiences.
The latest series of hers - strongly developed during the residency - involves paintings created
on textured, hairy blankets. This series of works cross the border of a standard painting by
being photographed together with the artist placed in natural environments —an exploration that
merges art with the organic dynamism of the outdoors, though this remains an exception within
her largely classical approach.
