Ismatjahan Ravat – Commission, City of Coventry Health Centre
Ismatjahan Ravat was commissioned to create a site-specific artwork for the City of Coventry Health Centre. The work responds to the building’s existing colours, patterns, and textures, alongside references to Coventry’s industrial heritage, including watchmaking, the car industry, and radio production.
Drawing on photographic research of artworks and interiors within the space, Ismatjahan developed an abstract painting in the Art Riot Collective studio. The final piece was scaled to an 8m x 5m wall installation, now prominently situated in the health centre’s foyer.
The commission demonstrates a thoughtful and engaging response to both the architectural environment and the cultural history of Coventry.
