Elika Valehi and Farinaz Ajili, two international students of the University of Szeged, opened an art exhibition yesterday, June 26, at the József Attila Education and Information Center.
Elika, a recently graduated pharmacy student, works with different techniques such as watercolor, oil, acrylic, charcoal, and pencil. "I started to paint when I was a child. Coming from Iran, some of my paintings are inspired by Persian culture and combine elements of traditional Persian calligraphy and ancient logos. My watercolor paintings are inspired by nature." - she said at the exhibition opening.
Farinaz, a second-year medical student at SZTE, prefers colored pencils, acrylic paint, and pastel colors. She finds great joy in creating modern and abstract works and tries to discover different shapes and colors wherever she can.
"I have been painting since I was a child, like eight years old, and I made some exhibitions for my family and made them come and see the things that I made. For a long time, I was painting just for myself, and then, when I was about 19 years old, I went to a colored pencil class for about a year. After that, I was very busy at the university in my country, Iran, where I studied anesthesia. Then I came to Szeged and became a medical student, so again, I was very busy with my studies, but still, I did some paintings for myself." - Farinaz told us about her experiences.
At the opening of the exhibition, the two artists spoke about how art has the power to evoke emotions, awaken thoughts, inspire, cross borders in a unique way, and connect everyone by creating a universal language. Visitors were invited to immerse themselves in this artistic space and let the strokes and colors guide them towards art, a world that celebrates creativity and diversity.
Creator Symphony was on display until today, June 27.
