ART NYC Announces the Artist Azita Sadeghi’s Solo Exhibition ‘Touch of Nature’

ART NYC Announces the Artist Azita Sadeghi’s Solo Exhibition ‘Touch of Nature’Solo Virtual Photography Exhibition

NEW YORK – October 14, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

ART NYC introduces Azita Sadeghi’s 15 photographs as her portrait and landscapes in Iran. 

Azita Sadeghi is an Iranian painter and photographer who’s been practicing in the field of Art over the past 10 years. She is the founder and owner of Azita Art Gallery in Iran. 

She was born in Iran and grew up in the north near Caspian Lake, Damanavd peak, beautiful forests, and national waterfalls. The country, with a long history of Art and poetry, inspired her to follow her passion and to express her feeling through the beauty of nature.

She loves to capture her life history in her artworks. When she was a young girl, she watched her father working in his garden every day, and that was another inspiration for her to create beautiful pieces of painting about nature with color pencils. At that time, she realized a world of indefinite beauty, away from all the daily chaos in people’s lives.

When she was 16, she decided to change her major in high school and go to art high school, which was a revolt decision living in the Middle East, where most kids are enrolled in engineering or medical majors. But being honest with her feelings helped her to convince her family to agree to the transfer. It was at that time that she tried using different mediums, such as painting oil, acrylics, and watercolor. She showed interest in paintings created by Piet Mondrian, William Turner, and Vincent Van Gogh; their paintings triggered her direction.

After that, she continued her learning in Fine Art, when she got more familiar with the foremost Iranian modern artist Sohrab Sepehri, who is an international figure. Her first group exhibition which was promoted by ART NYC showed her views on new ways of painting and applying various techniques to create a divine sense of nature.

This exhibition is a virtual art show by ART NYC, placed in Artplacer. You can click on the link or find ART NYC on the Art placer app. You can see it anywhere, anytime online. Also, you can buy the art at the ART NYC page on Artsy. 

This show will be open from 10/14/2022-12/31/2022.

Adoration from Carmel: Eucharistic Hymns \nOut Now\nfrom the Carmelite Sisters of the Most Sacred Heart of Los Angeles

LOS ANGELES – October 14, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

The Carmelite Sisters of the Most Sacred Heart of Los Angeles are sharing their singing with the wider world, through a heartwarming new album: Adoration from Carmel: Eucharistic Hymns from the Carmelite Sisters of the Most Sacred Heart of Los Angeles. Released through De Montfort-Sophia Music Group and recorded in the beautiful acoustics of the community’s St. Joseph chapel at Santa Teresita, in the City of Angels, the album features the Sisters singing pieces both a cappella and arranged with a seven-piece chamber ensemble. The repertoire, having flowed from the Sisters’ daily prayer together, has an intimate, timeless, radiant feel – ideally captured by top producer-engineer Brad Michel, winner of multiple Grammy and Gramophone awards.

“Rare traits these days, not only in popular music but also in the culture at large” -Wall Street Journal

The Wall Street Journal describes the music of the Carmelite Sisters as “sung with unalloyed joy and a sweetness – rare traits these days, not only in popular music but also in the culture at large.”

Brad Michel – who has shepherded hundreds of acclaimed classical recordings into the world over the past 30-plus years – had this to say of Adoration from Carmel, “What makes a performance of music truly sound good is a cohesive spirit, which is deeply evident with this group, they have the willing ability to listen and work together…so that the sound of the music is like silk. Even if you’re just listening through a TV soundbar at home or on headphones traveling, the recording is compatible with Apple Spatial Audio and Dolby Atmos so that you can get that immersive effect.”

Mother Gloria Torres points out that singing marks the passing of the days for the Carmelite Sisters, as well as a vision beyond daily existence. “From the rising of the sun to the setting of the sun, there are moments through the day for us when we sing. We know life is so much bigger than our own little world, and we want to unite our voice with that of eternity.”

SAN JOSE, Calif. – October 14, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

JJAANN Company (jjaann.co.kr), a startup founded by a global team educated from Harvard and Stanford, participated in ‘2022 Mobile World Congress (MWC 2022)’ held in Las Vegas from Sept. 28 to 30. JJAANN is the world’s first social drinking platform where users can have a virtual fun night out from the comfort of their own homes with friends, family and even celebrities, including K-pop stars. 

JJAANN Company was selected as one of 30 most promising Korean metaverse-related companies by a Korean government agency, NIPA (National IT Industry Promotion Agency) and successfully took its first step towards global expansion by spurring interest from potential global partners and investors.

At the Industry City session that covered “The Future We Aspire to Face Global Challenges with K-Metaverse”, SeonJoo Yoon, Founder and CEO of JJAANN Company, was selected as one of five speakers and introduced a case study of JJAANN, followed by a panel discussion moderated by Will Decker from Plug and Play in Silicon Valley. Yoon spoke about “Improving emotional well-being: fighting mental health issues through ‘fun’ K-Metaverse, JJAANN”. She quoted certain survey results that showed over 1 in 3 adults around the world experience some level of loneliness and introduced the positive effect of virtual social drinking, where users can expand their social circle by connecting with family, friends, and celebrities and making new friends with similar interests, which can help improve feelings of loneliness and social isolation. She emphasized that even though feelings of loneliness deepened during the pandemic, the issue certainly existed pre-covid and will continue to exist post-pandemic, and that JJAANN can help solve it, which she called “The next-generation drinking”.

Yoon’s presentation successfully initiated conversations with various potential partners from the U.S. market, Latin American markets and Asian markets during MWC 2022, which will continue to take place when JJAANN comes to Silicon Valley on Nov. 7-8 for “K-Global @ Silicon Valley” event, which is organized by KOTRA (Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency).

* JJAANN guarantees a FUN night out with whomever they hang out with, using unique features such as ice-breaking games, immersive background themes and F&B stickers etc. Another unique feature is virtual drinks with celebrities, including K-pop stars, which attract users from all over the world. Since its beta product launch, JJAANN has gained 25K users from 47 countries within six months and aims to start expanding to global markets. JJAANN currently takes the form of a video chat platform but aims to upgrade to a more three-dimensional metaverse.

‘Fighting Mental Health Issues Through Fun Korean Metaverse’ Presented at ‘MWC Las Vegas 2022’

Author Paul Nicholas’s New Book, ‘A Heartbeat Away’, is a Compelling Faith-Based Tale Following the Journey of a Man After Seeing His Past and Present

Author Paul Nicholas’s New Book, ‘A Heartbeat Away’, is a Compelling Faith-Based Tale Following the Journey of a Man After Seeing His Past and PresentRecent release “A Heartbeat Away” from Covenant Books author Paul Nicholas is a gripping spiritual read following a man who receives a vision that changes the course of his life.

FOREST, Va. – October 14, 2022 – (Newswire.com)

Paul Nicholas, a family man residing in the blue ridge mountains, has completed his new book, “A Heartbeat Away”: a faith-based saga of truth, love, and kindness.

Nicholas shares, “Josiah Benton was born and raised in Flagstaff, Arizona, home to the beautiful San Francisco Mountain Range and the vanilla scents of the Ponderosa pine forest. Our world would consider his life most unfortunate with the challenges he faced at birth. Not to be fazed by the palsy affecting the left side of his body, Josiah makes the most of life in his forty-seven years on earth.

A childhood friend by the name of Caleb Barnes keeps him busy with their favorite games, sleepovers, and a fishing caper, which lands them in hot water with family members who so easily forgave them. 

Trapped one night in a deer stand, freezing to death if not for the body warmth of his best buddy, Caleb, Josiah sees into his past and the future with the help of an angel. Five key events are shared that set the course for his life. He sees them all in the same vision. One event from the past, he understands. Four events are yet to be revealed. In our lifetimes, there are four to five events each of us experiences to make an impact on the kingdom of the Lord, our families, and our own lives. The impact can be positive, or the impact can be negative. Take a journey with Josiah and see where these future events lead him. See if the world becomes a better place after Josiah takes his last breath.

You will meet the love of Josiah’s life, Rebecca Adsila. The origin of their relationship is unique to say the least, and oh, do they have so much in common. Three great adventures await them spanning two and half decades. Their final act of kindness and conviction for the masses is one for the ages.

The story is narrated by Josiah Benton himself as he rests while taking in his last breaths in bed. The same bed his beautiful wife, Becca, died in just six months prior. Now, it is Josiah’s turn. No bother to him. He is more than ready to go home and be with his Becca. He is fortunate to be surrounded by his two children and four grandchildren, or is he hallucinating and confused?

Clues along the way reveal the truth about Josiah, but the challenge will be piecing them together and solving the puzzle, only to be revealed right at the very end.”

Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Paul Nicholas’s new book follows the journey to the truth when, after receiving a vision, Josiah embarks on life’s greatest adventure.

Readers can purchase “A Heartbeat Away” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes & Noble.

Covenant Books is an international Christian owned and operated publishing house based in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina. Covenant Books specializes in all genres of work which appeal to the Christian market. For additional information or media inquiries, contact Covenant Books at 843-507-8373.
