ARTIM ROOMS: TALK BY VUSAL AHMEDOV

YARAT Contemporary Art Space invites you to workshop “Fathers said 3 Times” by artist Vusal Ahmedov in the frame of the exhibition “Perpendicular Truths” in ARTIM Project Space.

Vusal Ahmedov will discuss current issues in society such as feminism, consumerism, minority issues, and social judgement and invite the audience to share their experiences and express them in the form of drawings. The drawings will be transformed into stickers and will become part of a public space intervention.  

Figurative installation entitled “Atalar üçdən deyib” (“Fathers said three times”) by Vusal Ahmedov puts philosophic questions in front of the audience and seeks to depict the visual transformation of the present time to an ideal form of the future. Such subjective approach of to the topic has also influenced material choice of the artist.

Vusal Ahmedov (b. 1996, Azerbaijan) is a Baku based artist. He studied the applied mathematics and cybernetics and specialized in a field of computer sciences. In his works, the artist explores the topics such as values, the unnoticed nuances of the daily life, and the social problems of the era.
