Juan Pablo Ruiz Morales’ Review:
‘The Essence feels like a meditation on time—where past, present, and future exist in a single breath. Nasim Yazdani’s ability to shape materials into poetic forms is striking, each piece holding a quiet, undeniable presence. What moves me most is the honesty in Yazdani’s work. She does not force the material; she listens to it. Textures, imperfections, and shapes emerge as if they always belonged, revealing something both fragile and enduring. The artist’s statement beautifully frames this dialogue between destruction and preservation—a tension that lingers in every piece. The Essence carries a clarity that feels deeply personal yet universal. It’s a stunning collection.’
