SAF’s Al Hamriyah Studios hosts Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian’s work 8 hours ago Muhammad Yusuf, Features Writer Sharjah Art Foundation (SAF) has announced that Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian’s artwork Khayyam Fountain is now on view at Al Hamriyah Studios in Sharjah. Khayyam Fountain is one of the artist’s most ambitious realised projects, where she draws inspiration from the polymath Omar Khayyam, known for his work on cubic equations, his influence on the development of the Persian calendar as well as his poetry, widely translated into English as the Rubáiyát. In her homage, Farmanfarmaian interleaves multi-sided shapes triangles, pentagons and hexagons to form a tower that rotates precipitously above a hollow base, creating varied refractions of light at different times of the day. The form of the fountain evokes the metaphor of water as a constant fount of life.
