Art Dubai 2023 is set to showcase the work of renowned digital artist Brendan Dawes, who will debut his new series \u201cPersian Dreams\u201d at the event. The exhibition, presented by Gazelli Art House, is part of the fair\u2019s New Media section and will feature four screens of mesmerizing and metamorphosing imagery. Dawes has combined visual, linguistic, audio, and dance facets of artistic expression to create this new body of work, which draws inspiration from The Book of Kings, also known as the Shahnameh, an epic poem from Iran.<\/p>\n

The Shahnameh recounts a Persian golden age via some 50,000 couplets, written by native poet Ferdowsi between c. 977 and 1010 CE. Dawes\u2019 work offers a renewed and digitized interpretation of the epic poem, providing a preservation of mythologies and histories that lend the artwork an arcane and scholarly agency.<\/p>\n

The series comprises four distinct parts: Persian Dreams: Heroes, Persian Dreams: Dynasties, Persian Dreams: Creation, and Persian Dreams: Monument. Each section is inspired by different ages of the Shahnameh, and visuals are choreographed to the movements of dancer Charlotte Edmonds, displayed over three uniform screens, while a fourth larger screen draws from the whole.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve always felt the promise offered by new technology and especially AI is the ability to see things in a new way,\u00a0 beyond our own imaginings. Yet these technologies don\u2019t sit alone: they are built on past experiences together\u00a0 with universal themes which run through each and every one of us. With <\/span>Persian Dreams<\/span><\/i>, I\u2019ve embraced these\u00a0 new tools yet fused them with the stories of the <\/span>Shahnameh<\/span><\/i>, an epic poem thousands of years old, to create\u00a0 a lens we might use to can see how stories told a millennia ago still resonate today, even in a contemporary\u00a0 context.\u201d \u2014 Brendan Dawes <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Madota, an artist duo, has scored the exhibition with experimental soundscapes that incorporate elements of zoorkhaneh, traditional athletic rituals. The verses and visuals of the Shahnameh are manifest in fortuitous oscillations between figuration and abstraction. Madota has described the exhibition as a \u201cdeep sense of history and the passage of time,\u201d \u201ca voyage alongside the mighty heroes within the myths and legends that embody Iran\u2019s golden past,\u201d \u201crooted in simplicity and airiness,\u201d and \u201clike a lucid dream.\u201d<\/p>\n
