Mona Bozorgi—A Conversation with the Artist

Thanks to everyone who attended our conversation with Mona Bozorgi (Mona Bozorgi). Bozorgi provided some context for her show, followed by a thought-provoking conversation about the challenges of representation. During the discussion, Bozorgi talked about the influence of Iranian carpet making and her methods for printing on silk. Other insights into her work included subtle references to the concept of “Freedom,” which in Farsi is Azardi.

Tomorrow is the last day to see all three exhibitions by Mona Bozorgi (Mona Bozorgi) Elizabeth Casqueiro, and Sunanda Khajuria.
