‘There Goes the Neighbourhood,’ BITA FAYYAZI, B21 Gallery, March 17 – April 05, 2009

What Fayyazi has termed ‘There Goes the Neighbourhood’ is a collection of disparate figures, at once typical, sincere and ironic. She captures the odd diversity of life that proliferates on the streets of her native Tehran through sculpture and installation and infuses each character with this particular detail that reveals the true self. Through and beneath the disguise of every figure, Fayyazi tackles the fundamental themes of society, popular culture and religion.
