A new group exhibition "Postponed" has opened at the YARAT Contemporary Art Space.

The exhibition held at ARTIM Project Space, features art pieces by Nargiz Abdullayeva, Aghababa Baghirov , Leyli Ahmedova, Mushfiq Heydarov, Novruz Mammadov, Ali Yusibov and Sabit Zamanov.

The art project "Postponed" captures the essence of postponement and delay in its most basic form, encouraging us to consider the topic more profoundly and metaphysically.

Through the lenses of various interpretations of the artists, the thought-provoking "Postponed" explores the subject of delayed wishes, postponed realisation, and aspirations.

Even the possibility of a delay or postponement can be unsettling in the fast-paced reality we have already become accustomed to.

The everyday life of a contemporary individual is full of time-bound activities, deadlines, and situations that necessitate predictability and control. However, due to the unpredictable nature of life, circumstances can occasionally lead to collapse, intentions can be misplaced, and expectations are not met as they were intended. Similar to the butterfly effect in chaos theory, delay can shift the course of events and transform the original state, resulting in significant differences.

The exhibition re-contextualizes "postponement", inviting audiences to think through the impacts of delays in life, whether personal or public and echoes with personal maturity and approaches in the context of "postponed activities," which the artists wish to offer as a departure point for many possible stories.
