And the magic of Rumi continues...

Rumi is still flowing through me. There are so many ideas in my head, more than what I could express sometimes, there are times I ask myself will I have the time to share all that I want to say? will people get my message? but then again, I always know that it does not matter, I just need to get the ideas out and share them as much as I can. It was then when I started working on a series of 8x8 inches pieces all at once. Just like small pieces of tiles in Islamic architecture where they form a shape, these works complement each other; colors, shapes, poems, they all fall into its place like a jigsaw. Working on new series right after these which will be shown on the next 2nd Friday. Stay tuned for pictures...

Sarvin Haghighi's Rumi Series will be part of London Biennale 2015

It is with pleasure to announce that two of my pieces from the Rumi Series have been selected through a juried committee to be featured in London Biennale 2015. This will take place from January 20th to January 25th 2015 at the Chelsea Old Town Hall on the King's Road in Chelsea, London. In 2013, the Biennale was a great success, acclaimed by the public and also by international art critics. The selection of 140+ artists represented 21 century in all its styles, expressions and forms. It's really exciting to be part of this amazing event in one of the most artistic cities in the world. This is just the start of the Global buzz for Rumi Series.... working on new pieces of the same series currently - Images to be shared soon
