Haines is proud to announce that Shiva Ahmadi's Flame Proofed (2023) has been acquired by the Jan Shrem and Maria Manetti Shrem Museum of Art.
Ahmadi, who is a professor of art at UC Davis, uses painting as a form of truth-telling. Her work combines luminous colors and mystical beings with violent imagery to highlight urgent global issues such as migration, war, and brutality against marginalized peoples. Flame Proofed was originally exhibited at the Manetti Shrem in the exhibition Shiva Ahmadi: Strands of Resilience, which ran from January 28 to May 6, 2024.
