“Parisa Ghaderi: Go Home” Art Exhibition

Creator, storyteller, educator… Having lived in both Iran and the United States, Ghaderi has experienced a unique state of existence- constantly straddling two worlds without fully belonging to either. Due to this existence, Ghaderi’s artwork is profoundly influenced by the urgent concerns of immigration and the impact of borders, serving to navigate the intricate complexities of these issues.
