In her critique of The Essence, Dr Perry states:

‘Nasim Yazdani explores human identity through her paintings in a profoundly thoughtful, cross-cultural way. Having emerged from a restrictive culture to a more progressive one, she is well aware of the importance of self-expression, human rights, and arts as a catalyst for social change. The faces in her paintings suggest we are all part of a diverse, collective species. Differences of race, gender, ethnicity, heritage, and age—essentially all variations of the human experience—seem to be minimised in her work in favour of the most important aspect—our oneness. Bold and sure, her work signals a kind of ‘coming of age’ of the human race, with affirmation at its core.’

Yazdani’s work has been widely acknowledged for its emphasis on the universality of human experience. Through her art, she challenges societal barriers and fosters an inclusive dialogue that transcends cultural and geographical boundaries. The Essence exemplifies this vision, offering viewers a profound meditation on identity, unity, and the transformative power of art.
