Independent artist-designer Banafsheh Hemmati will open her first solo exhibition in the UAE on 9 October 2025. Held in collaboration with DIFC, the exhibition, titled Body Geometry, will present a collection of the Tehran-based artist’s wearable jewellery and sculptures, where the two disciplines enter into a living dialogue with one another. The exhibition explores the relationship between body, space, and geometry, and is positioned at the intersection of art, design, and philosophy. Body Geometry invites the viewer to experience the connection between the human body and geometric form in a new way, and also shows the design process that the artist follows. This exhibition follows Hemmati’s participation in Dubai Design Week and two editions of the DIFC Sculpture Park, and will be open to the public from 9-31 October 2025 in Satellite Gallery, DIFC.
