The central motif is that of an Indigenous man in headdress &#8211; a symbol of strength, bravery, and honor. Roostaei commonly includes dancing silhouettes in his works, often representing time, and in this case, honouring traditional Indigenous dancers. This piece is illustrative of Roostaei\u2019s artistic lens and penchant for \u00a0intertwining a variety of disparate timelines and topics together to evoke the viewer\u2019s reflection and participation in the derivation of meaning.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vancouverfineartgallery.com\/zh-hans\/contemporary-artists\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">View more our Contemporary artworks<\/a><\/p>\n<p>and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/vancouverfineartgallery.com\/zh-hans\/old-masters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Old Masters artworks<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>OceanDrive Magazine Article:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><u><a href=\"https:\/\/oceandrive.com\/davood-roostaei-method-of-cryptorealism-conceals-images-but-never-roostaeis-unbridled-passion\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/oceandrive.com\/davood-roostaei-method-of-cryptorealism-conceals-images-but-never-roostaeis-unbridled-passion<\/a><\/u><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u5e03\u9762\u4e19\u70ef, 2021<\/p>\n<p>24 x 18 in | 61 x 46 cm<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":18069,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[336],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-20526","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-davood-roostaei-1959-2023-zh-hans","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"shipping-taxable","11":"product-type-simple","12":"art-masonry-item"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>First Contact - Vancouver Fine Art Gallery - Contemporary - Cryptorealism<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"&quot;First Contact&quot; Acrylic 18x24 by contemporary artist Davood Roostaei.
