Video Installation, MFA Thesis Show, Glass Curtain Gallery, Columbia College Chicago, Chicago, IL 2018
Attachment to Place is a video installation that explores my relationship with the U.S. and compares it to my relationship with my homeland (Iran). It incorporates drawings, projection-mapped videos, and collections of found objects. Using the psychological concept of Place Attachment, I will explore protected geological and historical sites in my native Iran and American national parks as a metaphor for protecting memory and identity.
