Life is Beautiful

Iranian artist Farhad Moshiri's latest installation titled 'Life is Beautiful', was created using hundreds of knives stabbed directly into a gallery wall. The use of everyday objects, which on occasion can become lethal weapons, reveals the underlying sarcastic ambiguity of Farhad's statement.

  1. Life is indeed beautiful from a macro perspective. But as you analyze the finer details, you realize how scary it really is.

  2. I like the idea of using different kinds of knives to make this kind of art work. The artist really worked hard for this amazing piece. I have a collection of knives that include kitchen knives, buck knives and even swords, but I don't think I can make a piece of art just like this.
