New Delhi, March 8 -- Delhi-based Pristine Contemporary gallery is presenting In the Land of Dreams, a solo exhibition by Iranian artist Ebrahim Barfarazi. A set of 18 canvases feature people in different stages of sleep. The artist uses this slumber as a metaphor for people's silence as the world around spirals into disorder. In the artist note, Barfarazi says the works are a commentary on the condition of human consciousness. "My hope is that these works serve as a mirror, one that urges us to wake up before it's too late," he states. This is in sync with the artist's overall practice of showing intensive, symbolic and introspective work. At Pristine Contemporary, New Delhi, till 10 April, 10.30am-6pm (Monday to Friday).
