Farzane Vaziritabar

1987 in Yazd, Iran
based in Karlsruhe, Germany

In her works and interventions, Farzane Vaziritabar addresses the situation of women in Iran and thus also comments on current political conflicts: "It was women who, with the headscarf as a symbol, started one of the strongest protest movements against the regime in Iran for many years." Vaziritabar's work tells the story of the obligation to cover the female head in a focused and visually powerful way, while also involving the audience.

Vaziritabar's work not only encompasses a wide range of media including sculpture, installation, photography, video and performance, but also drawings that explore narratives, identity, place and space.
