New York, NY

And still we rise: Iranian women artists make their mark. Roya Khadjavi Projects brings together works by 7 female contemporary artists from Iran.Through an array of artworks done in various mediums and styles, the exhibition portrays and examines how our memories and deeply rooted attachments to our homeland reflect and shape our personal perceptions of beauty and sentimentality and on a larger scale influence our life experiences and worldview. The proposed artworks for this exhibition transform poetry and storytelling into visual mediums and in doing so preserve past narratives while transforming them into expressions of present-day issues.

Featured Artists:

Aida Izadpanah, Parastoo Ahovan, Maryam Palizgir, Sepideh Salehi, Safarani sisters, Zahra Nazari
