"Parallel Rest " by Anahita Amouzegar

This work continues my exploration of the beach as a shared but psychologically divided space. I’m interested in how people exist closely together while remaining internally separate. On the surface, the setting suggests leisure and rest, but beneath that is something quieter — a negotiation between exposure and privacy.

The tents and umbrellas began to feel less like beach objects and more like temporary rooms. Small architectures built for protection, modesty, or retreat. I was drawn to the way bodies occupy these spaces — reclining, reading, stretching — absorbed in themselves, even while surrounded by others.

The fragmentation of space reflects how memory works for me. The beach is not a continuous landscape but a series of moments: colour, posture, shadow, distance. I’m less interested in depicting a scene and more in observing how people hold themselves within it — how we create emotional shelter in open places.
