Hamzianpour & Kia Gallery is pleased to co-present “Myth of 4,” from the Zamin Project’s Video Series, showcasing video works by eighteen SWANA (South West Asia & North African) artists based in the Bay Area and beyond. An opening art party was held on August 6, 2022, but the gallery will be open all day on August 20, 2022 from 11am-6pm. Remember to check with the gallery for up-to-date covid protocols and guidelines – (proof of vaccination and masks MAY be required).
This gathering of SWANA artists from northern and southern California as well as Canada will showcase video works that represent the reflection and recreation of their somewhat surreal and illusory past, present, and future. These works explore the struggles of each individual against external forces, constructing infinite narratives of war, the experience of migration, exile, identity, connection, love, and loss.
Artists include: Sholeh Asgary, Katayoun Bahrami, Zeina Barakeh, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, Shaghayegh Cyrous, Negar Farajiani, Kiana Honarmand, Nasim Moghadam, Labkhand Olfatmanesh, Narges Poursadeghi, Semco Salehi, Azin Seraj, Rojin Shafie, Ebtihal Shedid, Nadia Shihab, Keyvan Shovir, B Sisters, and Cyrus Yoshi Tabar.
