DANESH PHILOSOPHY,
Prophecies of painting
Text by Michel Cegarra
Works are born by the millions in the artists' studios. Once they have become images, they are plunged into the ocean of the Internet where they gravitate like living organisms and fulfill their destiny as a medium for lives, thoughts and bodies. This enlarged communication, crossed by dissonances and fragmentation, does not cease to duplicate its components, as would nature itself in the profusion of its creations. The entropy and the chaos which govern the natural world are also accompanied by settings in order and devices constantly rearranged of regulation where the signs of the origin are swallowed up.

Sepand Danesh’s drawings combine apparent simplicity with conceptual depth, forming a universal language beyond cultural and linguistic barriers. Inspired by exile and his passion for language, they become meditative spaces where repetition and variation alternate. The grid, both a framework of order and constraint, holds suspended drawn fragments, evoking memories and unfinished narratives.
Thus, in Sepand Danesh’s work, drawing functions as a codex that preserves the inflections of a constantly evolving thought process, an experimentation where ideas take shape before expanding into other mediums. Each line, each stroke, marks the movement of the mind, an intuitive exploration oscillating between memory and invention. Danesh’s fragmented drawings reveal the layers of time, constantly seeking new paths between the inner world and the reality of the outer world.

Text by Nina Leger
Faced with this grid running to the extinction of the glance, one understood the story
that animated what, from the start, seemed to be disorder.
It had begun like this: the world had emptied itself. The things, did not disappear
disappeared, they were integrated,
absorbed,
amalgamated,
devoured by walls or floors,
caught in the mass,
impossible to extract.

SEPAND DANESH
Text by Bernard Comment & Sally Bonn
The research of the French-Iranian artist Sepànd Danesh gathers around a world nourished by silences where each gesture and each detail proposes a free interpretation. His works admit the evidence of a solitude not imposed but governed by the history of the artist, whose family fled Iran after years of war.
