		<description><![CDATA[While Fataneh Dadkhah (published yesterday) narrows her focus to a painted face Shadi Ghadirian empties her scenes of characters altogether and allows their possessions to take over. For her Nil Nil series she photographs military objects - helmet, canteen, bayonet, ammunition belt, and so on â€“ in a domestic setting. Removed from their context, these accoutrements of war appear at once menacing and delicate, their agression tempered by the feminine element.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recent history, particularly the history of conflict, informs Reza Aramesh’s series Between The Eye And Object Falls The Shadow. His series draws its inspiration from Francisco Goya's "The Disasters of War," (1810-1820). Aramesh arranges actors in a variety of tableaux or, in his terms, numbered ‘actions’ in which 17th century Spanish artist prints are contrasted with found photographic imagery from Reuters depicting disputes mainly in the Middle East from the 1960s to the present day. Each of Aramesh’s scenes is deliberately and incongruously set in of the stately and historical homes in the idyllic English countryside.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At first seemingly simple, Ramin Haerizadeh's photographs are nonetheless visually as well as intellectually complex. The meticulously crafted components within each work behave in unexpected ways and culminate in an immaculate finish. Reminiscent of the traditional motifs of Persian tapestries, architecture, fabrics, and carvings, Ramin Haerizadeh’s work reconfigures the decadence of an ancient civilisation into lusciously futuristic tableaux. Printed as large photographs, his computer manipulated imagery conveys all the sumptuous associations of history within their super-slick modern surfaces. Using these appropriated forms as departure point for invention: Haerizadeh transforms tradition, myth, and legend into the realm of virtual reality, subverting convention through high-impact graphic design and digital modelling.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mauricio Alejo, who was born in Mexico City and lives and works in New York, records everyday objects that he sets up in absurd arrangements, or more dramatically modifies by cutting, staining or painting them, or submitting them to laws of physics. The actual constructions cannot be experienced directly, but only in the beautifully composed photographs and videos that they gracefully inhabit.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I enjoy making lo-fi props out of inexpensive materials, generally card and poster paint, taking something cheap and readily available like cardboard and transforming it into loud brightly coloured backdrops that can be easily carried from place to place.

In this series I have tried to paint patterns or make shapes that would encourage the participant to hold themselves or act in a certain way. It is important that all the props and text are in the shot so that the subject can interact with them.

The cardboard acts as cartoon-like element exaggerating the things that are already there, making the invisible visible or just simply transforming an everyday setting into a DIY fantasy world.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Chaology. This series grew from a fascination with the visual power of the photographed explosion. These silent and still forms are created from images of explosions caught at a point of expansion. Source material includes the received images from Hiroshima, nuclear tests, the space shuttle disaster, burning oil and white phosphorus bombs. The sculptural forms are created from cotton wool, talcum powder, paint and pipe cleaners.]]></description>
