The Gathering is an ongoing project that began as a reaction to what I have perceived as the splintering and silence within my family and circle of friends in Iran. A splintering engendered by a chaotic and violent history with decades of political instability and conflict. The project is part of a series comprising three textile installations with sculptures and text, where I explore how individuals interact with their violent surrounding over time, the traces left behind, and what they relate when words are no longer sufficient.
