Bodyshape – Kashan – Iran – 2021
The body is a structure or concept that changes every moment. When we look at ourselves, we may not be aware that thousands of cells are undergoing changes at that very moment, presenting a part of us in the form of a form. This body, in the face of ironic actions (other bodies, events, emotions, etc.), will also undergo internal transformations parallel to these physical changes. Words such as mortality, loss, grief, fear, ambiguity, loneliness, etc. are words that create the internal structure of a body in a world devoid of contemporary meaning. Each of these words alone leads to disintegration and disconnection.
In this arrangement, words and phrases that the tired and weary structure of this body carries with it every second are printed on a number of bricks (as cells, organs, and within the body). The arrangement of the bricks is playful, and the audience as a completer of the work process will have the possibility to move the bricks. Each audience member and each game will create a new and unpredictable body and form with their own will, inevitably leading to collapse.

The most passive position…
The final state…
