Originating from vintage video clips, Helia Chitsazan (b. 1995, Tehran, Iran) invokes a visualblur and static of old camera films through her painting. Chitsazan explores a constant and universally ambiguous feeling of absence and loss. To her, art is a language to hold emotions and complications that she experienced growing up in Iran’s specific cultural and social circumstances. Chitsazan speaks on the manifestation of her practice, “…growing up in a society with different levels of verbal oppression has made me interested in communicating and expressing myself through various other ways but not talking and art is one of them.”
