Thank you VAULT for this wonderful feature about our current artist project at The Artbarn - Desire Moheb-Zandi’s exhibition “Evergreen” 🙏🙏

Repost VAULT:

Desire Moheb-Zandi’s ‘Evergreen’ is on in the Arndt Collection’s Artbarn, Cape Schanck until 18 September 2026.

Handwoven into sculptural forms that spill beyond the boundaries of the wall, Desire Moheb-Zandi’s ‘Evergreen’ transforms weaving into an exploration of rhythm, material and memory. Working with natural fibres, rope, raffia, velvet and synthetic threads, Moheb-Zandi builds tactile compositions through the repetitive gestures of weaving, knotting, wrapping and layering. Her works sit between geometric structure and organic movement, balancing meticulous craftsmanship with spontaneity and allowing the material itself to shape the final form.

Drawing on her Turkish, Iranian and Uzbek heritage, Moheb-Zandi considers how textiles can carry personal and collective histories, particularly stories of displacement, belonging and continuity. ‘Evergreen’ pushes fibre beyond its traditional associations with craft, proposing weaving as a dynamic sculptural language through which cultural knowledge can be transformed and carried forward.

We love Pablo Picasso‘s Ceramics!

Thank you for this great feature about this specific oeuvre - your exhibition in Miami looks stunning!

Not every Picasso hangs on a wall.

In the postwar years, Pablo Picasso discovered the ceramic tradition of Vallauris and the Madoura workshop in the South of France. What began with clay became one of the most inventive chapters of his career, transforming plates, vases and pitchers into faces, animals, myths and sculptural forms.

Located in Miami, Gary Nader Art Centre presents an exceptional group of Picasso ceramics, offering collectors and art lovers a rare opportunity to experience this intimate and highly collectible side of the master’s oeuvre.

Visit Gary Nader Art Centre to discover the collection in person from Monday to Saturday (10:00 am to 6:00 pm)

Thank you to everyone who joined us at the Artbarn today for the preview of Desire Moheb-Zandi’s () exhibition „Evergreen,“ and for her conversation with Danielle Whitfield, Curator, Fashion and Design at the National Gallery of Victoria ().

Moments of dialogue and shared amazement in front of extraordinary art are exactly what make opening our home and private artspace such a privilege and a joy.

Dear Desi, thank you so much for this extraordinary exhibition and for the new body of work you created for our project!

„Root“ - by Desire Moheb-Zandi

Another work from Desire Moheb-Zandi’s new body of work created for “Evergreen”, opening tomorrow at our private artspace, The Artbarn, in Cape Schanck.

Root beautifully embodies what fascinates me about Desire’s practice: the way she gives the ancient craft of weaving such a distinctly contemporary and sculptural language. Layers of texture, loops and lines extend beyond the woven surface, while botanically hand-dyed wool meets velvet, raffia, lurex and upcycled synthetic threads. Almost like a drawing that has escaped into three dimensions.

Please join us tomorrow, Saturday 8 August, from 11 am–3 pm, for the preview of Evergreen at The Artbarn on the Mornington Peninsula, including an artist conversation with Desire Moheb-Zandi, moderated by Danielle Whitfield, Curator, Fashion & Textiles at the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV).

Today Desire Moheb-Zandi ( ) started installing her artist solo project, „Evergreen“ at our Cape Schanck Artbarn.

We are excited to present this new body of textile works by Desire, some of which was created during the artist’s residency at the Australian Tapestry Workshop in Melbourne ( ).

Please join us for the opening, with a preview and an artist conversation, on Saturday, 8 August, between 11 am and 3 pm.

Created especially for this exhibition, Evergreen brings together an amazing new body of work by an artist whose practice I have admired for its originality and quiet strength. What fascinates me is the way Desire brings one of humanity’s oldest creative techniques - weaving - into dialogue with elements of fashion, haute couture and contemporary sculpture, while forging a visual language entirely her own. Her woven objects feel almost like musical compositions or drawn lines translated into textiles, carrying a dynamic, painterly energy that is both delicate and powerful. I also love the element of upcycling that runs through her practice, transforming materials into works of remarkable beauty and depth.

We much look forward to welcoming you to our private art space for this preview and to sharing an inspiring afternoon in conversation with the artist.

For inquiries about the exhibition and the new works, please send a DM or email us.
