“One of my earliest memories is of a Persian rug at my childhood home in Abu Dhabi – I loved looking at it for hours, projecting myself into its maze of vines, trees and peacock feathers. I wanted so badly to teleport to this world that I believed was real and animated inside the carpet. Patterns are repetitions of form and theme, but beyond that, they are universes to fall into – geographic planes with rules of their own.

Patterns, even when clashing, say something about aspiration, self -reflexiveness and belonging. They tell us about time and place, texture, touch, desire, and time. The universe beyond the pattern (and the medium photography, too) is a space where gravity gives way and where we are removed from our physical bodies, floating – a kind of paradise where we can leave the real world behind ”

Farah is an artist working with photography, video and performance. Her practice over the years has moved fluidly between private and public spaces, but the content has primarily remained focussed on locating the fantastic in the everyday. She also explores how consumer culture seduces people, particularly women, with promises of beauty or self-improvement.
