Sahar Ghavami Home, again (2025)
framed: 120h × 90w cm
Acrylic on canvas

'Home, again' approaches belonging as a carried condition. For Sahar Ghavami, an Iranian artist currently based in Dubai, the notion of home remains under constant negotiation, defined by a state of recognition that exists without the need to answer where one is from. At the center of the composition, a girl with pink hair, one of Ghavami’s recurring figures, leans into an embrace, surrounded by a grouping of animals. Plush and wild, domesticated and untamed, their presence dissolves distinctions. Fur and hands merge in places, as shapes soften and blur, establishing a shared field of closeness and continuity. The image proposes a redefinition of home. Constructed not as a physical place, but as a condition, formed through warmth, contact, and a mode of acceptance that precedes language and geography.

Sahar Ghavami's profile image

Central to Ghavami’s practice is the creation of protective environments and dream-like states. Visually, her paintings unfold with a pronounced sense of fluid continuity: forms do not end so much as they become. A human hand holding an animal may gradually dissolve into its fur or skin, while the animal merges into the surrounding environment. These transitions occur without rupture, guided by an internal logic that resists hierarchy or separation.
