Heech on chair, ca. 2007

This sculptural work belongs to Parviz Tanavoli’s celebrated Heech series—an iconic exploration of form, meaning, and absence within Persian culture. The word Heech (meaning “nothingness”) is transformed into a powerful three-dimensional presence, simultaneously contemplative and monumental.

Resting upon a chair, the sculpture introduces a poetic tension between language and object, presence and void. The chair functions both as support and symbol, grounding the abstract form in everyday life while elevating it to a philosophical statement. Executed in fiberglass, the work demonstrates Tanavoli’s mastery in blending modern sculptural language with deep cultural and linguistic roots.

Produced in a limited edition of 20, this piece is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity, making it a significant acquisition for collectors of modern and contemporary Middle Eastern art.
