15 recent paintings by the Iranian artist Azadeh Razaghdoost's first solo exhibition in the UK
Inspired by 19th century European poetry of the Romantic Age, in particular ”The Sick Rose“ (1794) by British poet William Blake and “Les fleurs du mal“ (1857) by Baudelaire. Through poetry she explores the contradictions inherent to human nature, using the emotional associations of the colour red, a signifier of love, passion and blood, to refer to humanistic states and impulses from health and sickness, to life and death, and love and lust.
