Iran: Memory X Heartbeat

This exhibition brings together a group of  Iranian artists living across geographies, whose practices emerge from a shared origin but unfold through distance, displacement, and time.

While physically separated from their country of birth, these artists remain connected to it through memory, language, and lived experiences, a constant struggle between the heart and the head. This ongoing conflict is what we feel inside every day. We are afraid to loose our roots and our authenticity and, therefore, go through a psychological battle within us to keep Iran as our heart beat and not to let her become a distant memory. The title of the exhibition, Iran: Memory X Heartbeat is a true reflection of this internal fight.
