TAHMINEH JAVANBAKHT | I WANT THAT BLUE SKY, 2026

Tahmineh Javanbakht’s mirror works transform reflection into a layered space where image, memory, history, and the viewer converge.

In I Want That Blue Sky, Javanbakht combines colored mirror, 24k gold leaf, powder-coated steel, wood, and paint, building a richly detailed visual field around the human figure. The mirrored surface implicates us in the work—our own reflection becoming part of an image that shifts as we move before it.

Currently on view at ADVOCARTSY as part of A Gaze Through Time: Contemporary Reflections on Memory and History.

Since beginning our collaboration with Shadi Yousefian in 2016, ADVOCARTSY has presented three solo exhibitions of her work—leading to the acquisition of a work from her Letters Series by LACMA in 2017 and her expansive Fading Memories installation by the San Diego Museum of Art in 2023.

We’re pleased to revisit Yousefian’s Letters Series with a special installation in our current exhibition, on view through September 26.

Join us tomorrow, Saturday, August 29, 2–4 PM for an informal exhibition walk-through at our Downtown Los Angeles gallery.

Details and images from Shadi’s exhibitions with ADVOCARTSY are available to explore on our website.

Shadi Yousefian | Letters Series

First exhibited at Shadi Yousefian’s inaugural solo exhibition with ADVOCARTSY in 2017, the Letters Series marked an important moment in our history with the artist. Following that exhibition, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) acquired a work from the series for its permanent collection.

The works currently on view are particularly special. Coming from Yousefian’s own collection, these pieces are more textually revealing—the fragments of letters more legible, and as a result, more intimate. Through these personal traces of correspondence, Yousefian explores memory, migration, distance, and the fragments we carry with us.

Join us this Saturday, August 29, from 2–4 PM for an informal exhibition walk-through and a closer look at the works and artists in A Gaze Through Time: Contemporary Reflections on Memory and History.

On view through September 26.

For more than five decades, Nicky Nodjoumi has used painting to question the structures and relationships of power—who holds it, how it is performed, and how authority shapes both political and personal life.

Through fragmented narratives, theatrical compositions, and figures caught in uneasy encounters, Nodjoumi creates a visual language that is political without being didactic. Works made years or even decades ago continue to resonate with the shifting dynamics of our present moment.

In Shadi Yousefian’s Letters series, fragments of handwritten correspondence become intimate records of memory, distance, and belonging. The writing remains only partially revealed, allowing personal histories to surface without ever being fully disclosed.

As the camera moves across the work, passages briefly emerge and recede—evoking the migrant experience, in which language, family, and home endure through fragments of memory. These handwritten traces become vessels of remembrance, preserving the emotional landscape of lives lived between places and cultures.

On view in A Gaze Through Time: Contemporary Reflections on Memory and History.
