lots are subject to 5% import Duty on the importation value (low estimate) levied at the time of collection shipment within UAE. For UAE buyers, please note that duty is paid at origin (Dubai) and not in the importing country. As such, duty paid in Dubai is treated as final duty payment. It is the buyer's responsibility to ascertain and pay all taxes due.
In his recent works Pooya Aryanpour's use of calligraphy-inspired lines have become liberated from their resemblance to the letter-form, coalescing instead into abstracted objects. Superimposed on a darker background, an illusion of depth and space and a sense of dynamism is created.
