Submitted by the Event Organizer
Aggregate Space Gallery is proud to present I Sprout on my Wound, a new exhibition of Nasim Moghadam’s work that explores the impacts of restrictive traditions and traumatic memories. Envisioning another world, an equal world in solidarity, Moghadam celebrates how womxn go beyond cultural and political limitations, rise up, and create a revolution.
Nasim Moghadam’s installations focus on discrimination and hyphenated identity, and the constraints on women, their bodies, and their voices. Using video, photography, and multimedia sculptures of varying scale, and materials that serve as constant physical reminders of femininity, Moghadam creates narratives inspired by the efforts of women worldwide who are defending their basic, unalienable rights.
“I sprout on my wound” refers to an anthem sung by those who fight for equality and women’s social rights in Iran
