Moein Shashaei: Conference Of The Birds

Conference of the Birds transforms the gallery into a space where the boundary between man-made objects and the wild wants to fade. This exhibition borrows its title from a Persian poem by the Sufi poet Attar of Nishapur, in which a gathering of birds embarks on a journey that leads them to an unexpected revelation.

Opening Reception May 21st, 6-8 PM.
