Shahryar Nashat's mixed media work combines industrial materials with photographic processes, layering UV printed imagery onto a sculptural foundation of Hydrocal and gesso. The integration of rubber and powder-coated steel introduces tactile, utilitarian elements that contrast with the ethereal quality of the UV print, creating a dialogue between permanence and ephemerality. This combination of materials reflects contemporary sculptural practice that challenges the boundaries between painting, photography, and three-dimensional form.
