Shirana Shahbazi: Meanwhile

Shahbazi shoots images including portraits, still lifes and landscapes and often uses them as source material not only for photographs but also for paintings, billboards or handmade carpets. By altering the scale and transposing the imagery into a new medium or a style associated with another culture, she subverts viewers´ expectations and explores the complexity of identity.

Lavishly illustrated, the publication focuses on Shirana Shahbazi’s photographic works with essays by Kate Bush, Gianni Jetzer, and Ali Subotnick.
