Please join us for an ArtWalk Artist Talk with Afarin Rahmanifar on Monday, November 6 at 6pm on the ArtWalk, 3rd floor of the downtown Hartford Public Library to learn more about the concepts, characters, and process for the Hartford Public Library’s current ArtWalk artist.

 

Afarin’s work reveals iconic female characters that have ties to both Eastern and Western cultures. She tells the stories of women and explores what it means to grow up in hybrid cultures. She deconstructs female figures in patterns, textures, and architectural elements using gold leaf, red sewing machine thread and animation to create layers.

Books are an intrinsic part of our culture; and our perceptions of books create intimate experiences, unique to our own personal relationship with these objects. As window into the past, means of communication, treasured object, place for self expression or favorite storybook, books inspire in myriad ways. Each artist in this exhibit pursues their own particular vision in their work using the book as an art form.
