The Rooms / collective installation art exhibition

The Room is a collective installation art exhibition with three artists. Installed in three separate rooms, and connected with an imaginary line together. In The Rooms, poetry is considered as a material; a substance that flows through space in a room, in the form of sound, and causes particles to move. It reveals its words to the eye in another room, And in its absence in the third room, insists on its existence. The poem that appears in these rooms was written by Bijan Elahi in the late 1960s. This installation borrows its title from the title of this poem.
