Paradox tale of Logic Gate / یکی بود یکی نبود، زیر گنبد کبود دوتا منطق نشسته بود is a performance work based on the concept of “Gharbzadegi غربزدگی /Westernization,” which is one of the theories leading to the 1979 revolution in Iran. It is investigating how control of access to high technology is power and how the suppression of technology/knowledge creates totalitarian governments with structural belief systems. The work is looking at the future and past of material concealment as a method to enter these two paradox realities.
The performance is a body of works with multiple narratives built around Citizen 000 00X and their territory. It aims understand the relation between isolation, self-control, and ancestry trauma. A non-linear time-traveling - braiding past and future sub-consciousness into a ritual, investigating how control can travel beyond borders and time. Paradox tale of Logic Gate is a window into their no-land and their ritual of pray.

6 performance Episods, durational
4 Video works

What is- the- matter Oracle?
Born in Iran, Farvash is a research-based artist whose practice is deeply rooted within Persian mythologies, histories, and ontologies.
Her practice focuses on transformative processes that span from micro-realities to navigating contemporary immigration guilt.
With a background in chemistry, she redefines scientific methods within the realm of material science and art. Creation of materials by studying characteristics, qualities, properties and behaviours from the smallest material component, nanotechnology and extends all levels to performance, lectures, and installations.
Her artworks are micro-realities, where each reality holds a system of logic, matter, persona linking to personal anecdotes and trauma.
Whoever holds the power to matter (present time: matter that gives revenue), in return, has power over the world.
