The Cape Coral Art Center is proud to feature this solo exhibit by artist Leila Mesdaghi entitled Love Cannot Alter It.
Leila Mesdaghi is an Iranian-Colombian Artist living in Fort Myers, Florida. To her, making art is a combination of emotional experiences and social responsibilities. Leila seeks to connect with her viewers in a visceral, evocative, and emotional manner; she stands on uncomfortable grounds and challenges how we observe, react, respond, and ease into conversations that take us to vulnerable places that possibly hold our understandings.
In “Love Cannot Alter It,” a title inspired by a sentence from Anne Carson’s book “Nox,” Leila thinks about the “emotionscapes” of fears of abandonment, physically and psychologically. To her, sometimes the only choice we have is to sit with our pain, embrace ourselves, and experience aloneness. Facing what we fear and maneuvering through the narrow paths of not knowing leads us to deeper places that will become familiar.
This exhibition is an invitation to look into things we cannot change, words we cannot take back, and feelings that hold us back. —
The exhibit will be on display January 3 thru January 23. A reception to view the exhibit and meet the artist will be held on Friday, January 10 from 5:00-7:00.
The heat is on! The luminous beauty of dramatically lit landscape paintings and the enchantment of colorful batik dreamscapes combine to capture the warmth of the tropics. Stay awhile and be transported into a world you won’t want to leave!
