Katayoun Bahrami is a multidisciplinary visual artist whose work reflects memories from her home country juxtaposed with her current reality. As an Iranian female artist, her research activities investigate the intersections of boundaries, identity, and women. By using memories from her past, Bahrami works through a series of photographs, videos, textile, and mixed media works. Farsi's handwriting also encompasses most of her art. Aspects of different locations, such as buildings, lakes, roads, or a garden, become the draft of her work to create a moment of reflection for the viewer.
Katayoun was born in 1981 in Tehran and received her BFA from the University of Science and Culture in Iran. She graduated from the Michigan State University in 2017 with a MA in Arts and Cultural Management-Museum Studies. Currently, she is pursuing her MFA in Studio Arts at the California College of the Arts.
