- Summary:
- "Pejvak is the long-term collaboration between Felix Kalmenson and Rouzbeh Akhbari since 2014." -- colophon.
- "If Need Be presents a constellation of stories about water scarcity in the arid regions of Central Asia, ancient Persia, and the American Great Plains. Artist duo Pejvak strings together a series of hallucinatory events involving artificial glaciers, dams and other human attempts to bring water under control. Giving equal weight to gossip, legend and historical fact, Pejvak takes the role of an unreliable narrator, situating the struggle for water within the struggle for the historical record." -- from https://artmetropole.com/shop/16140 (viewed 25 April 2025).
