My practice examines womanhood as an inherited, embodied condition shaped by migration, ritual, and domestic labor. Working across photography, video, performance, and mixed media, I investigate how women’s work including care and maintenance, as well as belief and restrain are learned, repeated or resisted, and carried across generations.

Rooted in a hybrid, third-culture upbringing within a Muslim Iranian body, my work considers how identity is formed not only through language and geography, but through gesture, ritual, and the choreography of everyday labor. Domestic acts such as cleaning, cooking, and tending become sites of inquiry, spaces where devotion, discipline, tenderness, and also exhaustion coexist.

Earlier projects grounded in hybridity and cultural inheritance form the foundation of my practice, establishing a material and conceptual language that continues to evolve. Across bodies of work, I am interested in effort over mastery, repetition over resolution, and the ways women persist within systems that both hold and constrain them. The work often lingers in moments of trying, where labor is unfinished, gestures stumble, and meaning accumulates inside the body, both energetically and physically.
