Sanam Khatibi's painting titled 'Almost a country house party' seamlessly blend history with modernity, fusing intricate elements from art history with contemporary interpretations. Her homage to Flemish art and vanitas themes resonates deeply with her exploration of the human experience. Her works channel the meticulous craft of Flemish painters, breathing life into her canvases through masterful technique. Amidst echoes of Old Masters, she infuses her own voice, shedding light on the transient nature of existence. Central to her art are female titan figures, redefining femininity through their commanding presence. They challenge conventions, evoking introspection on identity and power.

Khatibi's canvases navigate dualistic landscapes, ranging from apocalyptic to bucolic. These contrast tumultuous histories with serene sanctuaries, beckoning contemplation on life's complexities.

Through these motifs, Khatibi initiates a dialogue between history and innovation. Her paintings fuse Flemish art's essence with contemporary inquiries into gender dynamics, existential pondering, and our connection to nature. This visual narrative transcends time, urging us to ponder our place in history's intricate weave.
