The Funeral of Dreams
Mohammad Ali Maghsoodi
2013 February
May be it is easer to go on with having wishes.
Here the art work is not a photograph of Tehran's gray sky, a statue representing sick and tired people, motion pictures referring to our living society or a text about epidemic depression. Wishes that you'll write down to be buried by yourself are the main element for making this artwork. I expect that we make a monument of our dreams, an opportunity to reconsider our wishes as filling the interval in-between. In this interactive installation, we'll write down our elusive wishes and we'll bury them ourselves. These days in this land underground looks safer than our minds for a wish.
