movement director & choreographer

artist statement

I am a half Spanish half Iranian, first generation woman, raised as a Muslim in the U.S. I create visual art and the body is my medium. My body is a protest, a puzzle, a mirror and a keeper of secrets. I challenge this body and how it lives in this moment. My interests lie in movement that listens, studies, excavates, and illuminates our collective humanism. I am a multi hyphenate artist passionate about storytelling and always searching for ways to integrate traditional theatre works into the digital frontier.
