專家說明

'Merging the essence of my cultural heritage together with the multifaceted twentieth century art, I tried to find my own language of non-representational works. The earlier works were derived from Persian miniatures and folk art, but in progress it moved to the non-objective state, that's where it bypassed my perceptions and stimulated the inner senses, where it became more lyrical.
To me art is about freedom of mind, of expression, of inspiration, of style and techniques. I don’t think – the traditions are naturally compatible with the modern way of thinking, which is the contemporary mind. But I realize if you are creative you can find elements of those traditions which could get closer to today’s events and artistic movements. It needs an open mind, and courage of course, to break rules and to recreate; that is the beauty of art which gives you that space. At one point I realized why I cannot ignore my identity and my “Persian-ality” so I decided to see what I can get out of that magic box of my cultural heritage.’ - Reza Derakshani
