Lara Faroqhi‘s solo exhibition NO STRAIGHT LINES explores how nature is experienced in the urban environment. Public and private gardens embody idealized visions of nature, ideas that reflect human desires. Such gardens serve as places for relaxation and sensory experiences, yet they are deliberately artificial. Lara‘s works examine the tension between ‚natural‘ and ‚artificial‘ as it focuses on the transient aspects of how we perceive and interact with our own ideas and definition of ‚nature‘.
