ABOUT THE TEACHING ARTIST
Leila Seyedzadeh is an interdisciplinary Iranian artist based in New York. Her work delves into the realm of imaginary landscapes, particularly focusing on natural elements like mountains that emerge from the subconscious. These landscapes function as intricate tapestries woven from fragments of memories that have become disjointed and lost their original significance. Through this process, Seyedzadeh creates scenes of placelessness, where the act of reconstructing these memories simultaneously erodes their meaning, resulting in a landscape that is both familiar and disorienting.
MATERIALS COST: $65
