Valley of Knowledge  Aaran Gallery / Solo Exhibition 

The sculptural pieces, are all made using broken utensils that were thrown away in a pottery class that artist had attended, are the other part of this exhibition. Many of these pieces were discarded for a simple crack or minor fault. This is an act of recovery; to sooth the pain of abandonment. She brings these pieces of earth back to life, back to cycle of life. A resurrection that was inspired by The Conference of the Birds, of Farid Oddin Attar Neishabouri, the story of birds that set out on the path of discovery, many of them failing to reach their destination. And here are the ones that Failed.
A story of our land, of many lands, of a people who set out to capture their dreams and fail and in this failure another story takes shape, stories of pride despite failure, of gaining knowledge but perishing in the struggle. Stories that can only be told by artists like Rene Saheb, who understand earth and embrace many layers of life.
