Zahra Mohamadi
“I am striving to depict the subjugation of identities and bodies that have been brought into captivity, to narrate their sufferings, to recount the violence inflicted upon them, and to portray the power that continuously stifles the expression of these bodies and silences their voices.”
ARTIST BIOGRAPHY
Zahra Mohamadi (born 1992 in Tehran) is an Iranian multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in Tehran.

Mohamadi has exhibited her work in over 30 group exhibitions in the UK, Germany, Italy, Greece, Russia, United States, Belgium, Netherlands, and Iran.
