A multidisciplinary artist specializing in drawing, painting and sculpture, Naghmeh Sharifi, originally from Iran, has lived and worked in Montreal since 2009. Presented around the world and in many major Montreal institutions, her work is based on a profound interest in the psychology of the body, as a place of memory and a shell for our presence in the world, in all its fragility. A reflection on memory and disappearance, Naghmeh Shafiri's project explores by actively erasing aspects of the image, an inverted relationship to the creative process. It consists of painting on wooden panels and then erasing certain parts in order to reveal the final image.
