O Gallery presents "The Geometry of Silence" a collection of paintings by Mohammad Khalili (b. 1971, Torbat-e Jam). "... What is the mystery behind Mohammad Khalili's paintings, landscapes that apparently picture nothing odd, but annunciate the depths of the human soul?" Why something in his canvas unexpectedly adds to the beats of blue? I assume that he enjoys the rays of the unexpected to gleam, he is eager to stand on the side of the fallen earth, and gaze through the dark and unknown. [...] Here, in front of a stone, or there in between two concrete walls in the open, it seems that the effort of water or grass to cover the roughness and violence has failed, it is as if a battle inside the painter ends and there is a momentary concord; what is there is just there, and silence dictates the blurring of the painter's colors. [...] Indeed, the most amazing manifestation of existence is immersed in the silence and regret: silence, because the painter does not find language worthy of expressing that manifestation; and regret, because "there is always a distance." The painter insists on creating such landscapes, or rather, he walks into them, but tamely (or perhaps obediently) abandons them. He fortuitously encounters these places on the road to oblivion before the fortune takes them back from him again.” -Vahid Hakim, extract from “The wonder Factor - Rediscovering the Reality”, Herfeh:Honarmand, No. 67
