Ashkan Honarvar: “Invisible Lines”<\/p>\n

\u201cThe body, torn by acts of war, exploited by the sex industry or used as a tool for seeking identity, is the focal\u00a0point of Ashkan Honarvar\u2019s work. This constitutes a search for a universal representation of the evil latent in\u00a0every human, providing an opportunity for reflection. Honarvar\u2019s aesthetic dissection has an intriguing\u00a0macabre nature, which opens the images to interpretation.\u201d \u2013 Titus Verheijen<\/p>\n

“Invisible Lines” is comprised of hand-cut collages on paper from several of Ashkan Honarvar\u2019s recent bodies\u00a0of work. The Iranian-born artist lives and works in Trondheim, Norway. This is his first solo exhibition in Los\u00a0Angeles and second solo show with CES Contemporary.<\/p>\n

The exhibition takes place in the gallery’s Focus Space.<\/p>\n
