"Please Call Dr. Horder", Sylvia Plath's last Note is an original painting realized by Iranian artist and poet Parimah Avani in 2022. China ink and acrylic on ivory-colored Canson paper. Hand-signed and dated. On the rear written "Lady Lazarus". The artwork is poetically created through expressionistic brush strokes, The shapes and figures are inspired by the life and books of the poet Sylvia Plath, especially her suicide left a note in "Please Call Dr. Horder" and the poem of Lady Lazarus by Plath: "Dying Is an art, like everything else. I do it exceptionally well. I do it so it feels like hell. I do it so it feels real. I guess you could say I’ve a call" In this artwork motifs are created harmoniously in a neat composition, her knowledge of poetry let her create a visual poem in an expressionistic style, which is congruent with the title, the use of space and maintaining an empty background and foreground present the solitude of figure and at the same time is connected to oriental art. The dry and watery strokes in a minimalistic style made various layers perfectly, which makes this series unique: is deeply behind the dynamic emotion of each abstract form, with the exclusive application of colors to emphasise metaphorical features. Her artworks have evident characteristics, they are inspired by Tachisme's “Abstraction lyrique" and the artworks of Henri Michaux, and Hans Hurting then oriental calligraphy and art. Her art tries to create a strong connection between symbolism, literature, and visual expression by considering the activeness of social issues, evolving art that could be a mirror of society by passing from internal poetic language and inserting contemporary aesthetic codes. Parimah Avani (Born1988) is an Iranian Poet and visual artist, since 2009 has lived and studied in Italy, after graduating from the Fine Art Academy of Rome in painting continued her research on “Aesthetic of Talisman and Magics Text and Craft” and took her Ph.D. title in the Sapienza University of Rome in 2020. Her main camp study has been mythology and symbolism. From her have been published books and illustrations of books, various scripts, and poems in magazines. Her last personal exhibitions were held in Turin in 2022, in Bagni Pubblici "The Poems of Struggle and Mourning" and in Paiz "Silvery Rhapsody of Resistance".
