Participants
Ailin Mirlashari is an artist and works socio-culturally and anthropologically with her own background environment through, among other things, calligraphy, collage, and video in an intimate relation to the in-betweenness that can be experienced where a person's background, self-understanding, and lived culture do not reflect each other.
She focuses on community, joy, intimacy, sorrow, and strength by visualizing cultural expressions, symbols, structures, and emotions based on dilemma-ridden societal positions and a difficult-to-place longing for home.
Mirlashari is a recent graduate from Konstfack with a background as a cultural sociologist, activist, and founder of the intersectional feminist network StreetGäris.
