Catalogue Note
"I have always been fascinated by the invisible. Our breath is invisible and that's what keeps us alive. We are not our bodies alone: life is something more elusive and intangible and to penetrate that we need to go further than what we can see. Our perception is very limited...I would like my work to be open and generous, different for every person who sees it." Shirazeh Houshiary, 2011
