Woolen portraits; The representation of gentleness and fragile

Iranian artist Salman Khosrow, using raw wool, deals with the complexity of emotion and masculine situation. Influenced by personal experiences in quarantine and confrontation with crises, he uses wool fibers not only as an artistic tool, but as a therapeutic intervention. Each of his work shows a delicate balance between vulnerability and resilience, and the fibers are carefully woven together to create realistic figures that depict the fragility of human emotions. This innovative use of wool fibers challenges traditional harvesting of materials and combines heat and intimacy with male themes; It also suggests that in contemporary art, materials and issues should be addressed again.

Salman’s woolen sculptures are not only his artistic expression, but also have intimate conversations on the issues of identity, fragility and reconstruction. He has been able to create a sense of breeding in today’s tumultuous world by using substances that are usually associated with heat and relaxation. The artist reveals the complexity of each portrait by combining a so -called feminine material to redefine aspects of masculinity. Finally, these woolen sculptures symbolize the path of introspection and transformation that will tell the story of the stories that are expressed through art by thinking about art.

Wisclong says his work:

The texture of the lifeless fibers in the form of faces is relaxing for me and helps to face issues. These portraits are delicate and vulnerable and are in line with my anxiety. We live in a fragile time, and I feel like I need to find new materials and attitudes to recreate my work. The wool fibers bring heat and intimacy to these portraits and play by stimulating the instinct.
