Artwork Description

about this Mixed Media sculpture

This sculpture presents two identical classical heads facing each other in perfect alignment. Their eyes connect through a horizontal bar, forming a deliberate physical bridge. The symmetry creates tension between proximity and separation. The work explores communication reduced to structural connection rather than emotional exchange.

Cast from a replicated mold in resin or composite polymer, the surface appears intentionally uniform. A matte monochrome blue coating removes historical reference and specific era. Fine sanding preserves sculptural details while emphasizing calculated precision and controlled craftsmanship.

about the artist

Hossein Kahfi is a contemporary Iranian sculptor exploring both conceptual and material dimensions of sculpture. He works with mixed media, metal, wood, and found objects, blending traditional techniques with experimental methods. His practice includes small-scale sculptures, intricate installations, and large-scale works that engage space and environment.

Kahfi’s sculptures explore human experience, memory, imagination, and the complex interaction between individuals and their surroundings. He often uses symbolic forms and textures to reflect cultural narratives and contemporary societal concerns. His work challenges viewers to question perception, environment, and the meaning embedded in everyday objects. Materiality is central to his practice, where contrasts between hard and soft, fragile and durable, create tension and harmony.

Kahfi’s process is meticulous, often involving layering, carving, and assembling multiple elements into cohesive sculptural forms. He emphasizes dialogue between space, object, and observer, allowing his works to transform with perspective and context. 

His pieces have been shown in leading Iranian galleries, reflecting both aesthetic and conceptual innovation in sculpture. Exhibitions include Without Quiescence (2024) and Invisible Palace of Imagination (2022) at Shirin Gallery, Tehran. He also participated in the 11th Annual Exhibition of Small Sculptures, highlighting his continuing contemporary presence.
