Harvest

Event

17/02/2018 –

– 30/11

Then-current artist in residence at 1646, Sara Masinaei, presented a project titled “Harvest”, previously exhibited in Tehran, which conceptually informs the basis of a project she undertook during the residency. The theme of these projects attempts to explore the questions of belonging and investment within the realm of pseudo-homeland or borrowed and temporary spaces.

The public program was two-fold: the presentation of Harvest and the research that informs her practice as well as an open dialogue with the audience engaging and instigating questions regarding the concept of ‘belonging’ and ‘alternative cultural narratives and historiography’.
