Azin Rostami is an Iranian painter born in 1986.
Artist Statement:
“In my recent painting collection, I have been looking for a value-oriented attitude vs. an instrument-oriented attitude towards women. This collection intends to remind them of a hidden layer of individuality and that a woman’s value goes beyond her body, and in different societies, regardless of mental and intellectual capacity of those who can step toward development and sublimity of the society, the use and sexual objectification of them are more dominant.
That her internal beauty should be seen, not merely her appearance, and she should have dignity, identity, and compassion. Because her sexual identity has been controversial since long ago, and women are viewed for being a woman, and their intellectual and emotional systems are ignored.
Until a human, whether woman or man, is no longer viewed as an object, humanity is lost.”
