Jovan Erfan
Region: MFA Annual
My work explores the concept of hybridity within cultural identity, particularly related to the Iranian-American experience. Inspired by mythological narratives, present-day imperialism, voyeurism, and the female body as a metaphoric site of social and individual trauma, my work is an attempt to meld the two cultures that inform my personal experience.
