Mohsen Hazrati’s “PHOENIX FROM THE ASHES“ Fuses Virtuality and Persian Lore

Fusing virtuality and Persian Lore, the online exhibition “PHOENIX FROM THE ASHES“ opens at Cologne’s Priska Pasquer Gallery. For it, Iranian artist Mohsen Hazrati has created an allegorical space for reflection, over which its titular winged creature hovers; the phoenix also evokes the mythical Simurgh, a virtuous Persian “symbol for self-knowledge.“ Curated by Tina Sauerländer, the show is accompanied by an NFT edition that captures its avian protagonist in flight (image).
