TEHRAN – An exhibition of photos by Hamed Nasrabadian will open at Tehran’s Eskan Gallery next week to raise funds for children with cancer.
All the money raised by the event will go to the Mahak Charity Society, an organization offering services to children suffering from cancer, the photographer told the Persian service of MNA on Wednesday.
Sixteen photos on women and nature will go on show at the exhibit entitled “Vein to Vein”.
Explaining about the title, Nasrabadian said that he meant the veins of hands of kind patrons of Mahak that are connected to veins of the hands of children at Mahak.
He said that his works stress the need for peace and friendship, and he aims to reach a frame of peace among all frames of his works.
A theater performance and a duet of flute and violin cello have also been arranged for the opening ceremony of the exhibition on February 19.
“A mother is sitting on a chair beside a desk full of paintings, colored pencils and a doll. In her imagination, the mother is talking to her child, and a nurse is giving medicine to the child. However, there is no real child on stage and instead there is a piggy bank which invites the patrons to help,” Nasrabadian explained.
The exhibit will run until March 1 at the gallery located on Eskan Building on Mirdamad Blvd.
