ROJA

Shirin Neshat 17'- 2016 Courtesy of Galerie DIRIMART

Dreamers has been conceived as a trilogy of video installations, Illusions & Mirrors (2013), Roja (2016), and Sara (2016). Conceptually each of the three video installations revolve around single female protagonists whose emotional and psychological narratives remain on the border of dream and reality; madness and sanity; and consciousness and sub-consciousness as they each face their own distinct inner anxieties. The visual approach to the creation of this trilogy has been consistent, each video has been shot in black and white, and the artist uses simple camera devices to produce surrealistic and dreamy visual effects." - Shirin Neshat Screenings: Thursday, November 7th - 2pm Sunday, November 10th - 3.30pm
