I am a visual artist born in 1994 in Iran who lives and studies in the Netherlands.
I received my first MA in photography from the Art University of Tehran in 2018 and
then I start to study my second master's in visual arts and post-contemporary practice in
Akv st Joost in the Netherlands. Through my work, I explore the connection between
socio-political rules and female identity and body in Iranian society. Axis a
multidisciplinary artist, I used my lived experiences alongside Persian metaphors and
folklores to translate this issue into a visual form by combining different mediums such
as performance art, video, photography, and installation.

    • In collaboration with: Akv st Joost Art Academy
    • Location: Netherlands, Rotterdam
    • Andaruni is a video/performance in which I explore the concept of female identity and its borders (inside & outside) in my background country, Iran. My work is a reaction and reflection to the positon of women in Iran and by doing a performance I went through a spiritual journey based on Persian metaphors and symbols towards this issue.
