Gohar Dashti: Iran
Explore the impact of revolution and war on the collective Persian psyche.
Overview
The Australian Centre for Photography is good at covering the globe — exposing us to troubled corners, far-flung heartbreak and curious cultural rituals. And this upcoming exhibition from highly esteemed photographer Gohar Dashti is likely to be no exception.
Iran will be made up of selected works from two larger series. Part of the Head On Photo Festival, Dashti’s compelling photographs uncover the impact of revolution and war on the collective Persian psyche. Capturing barren landscapes that are sparsely populated, she reflects on big themes in subtle and sophisticated ways. That said, her work is not without humour. Often she constructs fictional scenarios that are imbued with wit and whimsy.
