FARIDEH SAKHAEIFAR
Born in Tehran, Iran and based in Brooklyn, Farideh Sakhaeifar received her MFA from Cornell University and her BFA from Azad Art and Architecture University in Iran. Her work ranges from photography to installation and sculpture and is usually related to her life experiences. Sakhaeifar draws from past forms of ethnic, political, and cultural control in order to reflect upon new forms of expression to highlight human struggle and establish autonomous forms of self-expression. More specifically, her practice seeks to produce a translational understanding of the social and political struggles in which she has been involved either directly or indirectly.
