ART Habens
Poya Raissi
Choosing a subject isn't a
structured and regular way for me.
Sometimes it begins with that story
telling idea or a different visionary
form. Metaphors or existence of
any semiotics dimensions has
primacy for me because it can
evoke the viewer's mind more and
involve it into discover meaningful
elements. I spent some time at
university studying theoreticians
like Roland Barthes and Umberto
Eco, such great semioticians.
Surely every day life experience
influence the creativity, but it's not
all the process, it was important
the facial features of characters
show a deep depression and
wistfulness that I had inspired from
the daily routine, but this influence
doesn't incorporate entirety and
completeness of the work, I take
streak elements and ideas from life
as raw materials and then bring it
to the development process, I try
to not just represent it, according
to theories in sociology of art, the
relation of an art form with its
society and conditions aren't
disconnected. We can talk more
about the “intensity” of this direct
experience independently.
Special Issue
I think that a quality arises when
this combination occurs , in which
some subjects become more
attractive from their normal states.
Paykan is a vehicle every Iranian
from the world knows it and
probably have some memories
with it, producing it is ceased for
many years but still you can see it
in the streets. At the current time
