Bahareh Khoshooee: WELL COME HOME
September 24–December 12, 2026
Bringing together sculpture, installation, projection mapping, and video produced over the past eight years, the exhibition traces Khoshooee’s evolving practice around questions of distance, mediation, and connection. Drawing from her experience as an Iranian immigrant, Khoshooee considers how prolonged distance from home reshapes relationships to place, memory, identity, and belonging. Encountering Iran from afar through an onslaught of images, narratives, and networked technologies, Khoshooee’s work moves between witnessing and grief, distance and connection, toward increasingly collective forms of care. Across the exhibition, “home” emerges as an unstable and continually evolving constellation of people, places, memories, and relations.

Siebren Versteeg: TIME FRAMES
September 24, 2026–Spring 2027
In TIME FRAMES, Siebren Versteeg presents five live-feed video artworks that transform familiar places through techniques of re-cropping, mirroring, pixelation, and other forms of digital manipulation. Drawing on real-time views of the Sphere in Las Vegas, the Empire State Building in New York City, the Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C., and the Acqualina Beach Resort in Miami, alongside a 1:1 scaled live feed of a table of remote controls in the artist’s studio, TIME FRAMES moves between sites of spectacle, tourism and the private space of the artist’s studio, collapsing the space between public and private life into one unified aesthetic field.

Opening this fall: “Timeframes,” a special project installed in our corridor vitrines by new media artist Siebren Versteeg opens Thursday September 24th, 4:30-7:30pm!

Featuring five live-feed video works installed in the gallery’s hallway vitrines, “Timeframes” transforms familiar sites through re-cropping, mirroring, pixelation, and other forms of digital manipulation. Drawing on real-time views of the Sphere in Las Vegas, the Empire State Building in New York City, the Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C., and the Acqualina Beach Resort in Miami, alongside a 1:1 scaled live feed of a table of remote controls in the artist’s studio, “Timeframes” moves between sites of spectacle and tourism and the private space of the artist’s studio.

By appropriating and altering these continuously streaming images, Versteeg continues a more than twenty-year exploration of live feeds and algorithmically generated imagery while considering the desire for instantaneous telepresence—the promise that contemporary technologies allow us to be somewhere other than where we physically are at any given moment. At the same time, the works draw attention to the surveillance infrastructure underlying this experience: cameras trained continuously on public spaces become sources of entertainment and escape.

Save the date! This fall the Yeh Art Gallery is so thrilled to present a solo exhibition by artist Bahareh Khoshooee opening on Thursday, September 24th, 2026!

This exhibition brings together installation, projection mapping, video, and sculpture by Bahareh Khoshooee from over the past eight years. Born in Tehran, Iran and based in Brooklyn, Khoshooee responds to rapidly shifting technological and geopolitical conditions, examining how emerging technologies shape experiences of identity, memory, surveillance, migration, and grief.

Stay tuned for more details about the exhibition and programming!
