This new exhibition features contemporary and modern painting using different techniques of letting the movement of paints create every piece. All works are presented on gesso wood panels with acrylic paint and finished with resin to enhance the colors.

Farhad Naimy trained first professionally as an engineer and later brought his passion for architecture, design and creative use of space to his custom-built, multimillion-dollar homes that now span across the landscape in San Francisco and other cities throughout the Pacific Northwest. His love of the Eastern Tennessee mountains and his family brought him back to Knoxville where he pulls from his international experiences of a lifetime to create art. Naimy is captivated with fluid art because of his deep connection to nature and color. In both there are infinite variety, and like love, infinite expressions. With his paintings themselves, viewers feel them more than are able to explain them. No matter how many techniques he masters or how many visions he creates, there is always an element of chance, change and surprise in Naimy’s work. The chemistry in life and in art is unexplainable but experienced through our senses.
