Join us for an hour with Tirazheh Eslami as she talks about her work exhibited in our current virtual gallery exhibit, Conventions.
Zoom information for the lecture can be found on the CBC Arts Center website.
Eslami’s work is a bridge between my past and present. She seeks to broaden cultural awareness, specifically to communicate to Western society the richness and beauty of her own Persian culture. Eslami hopes to build a chronicle, which successfully encapsulates Persian history and symbolic cultural events. She is inspired, changed, and challenged by the experience of living in two different cultures. The marriage of these experiences is at the center of her studio work. In order to effectively craft this connection, she has studied and relied on hybrid identity theory to justify and explore the multicultural experience.
