Reyhan Yazdani
Bio
Reyhan Yazdani is an interdisciplinary artist/designer based in Vancouver. Her creative research-based practice revolves around themes of identity, migration, and nomadism. She explores notions of place, loss and longing, and expressions of power through material inquiry, poetry and critical writing. Philosophical discourses related to the phenomenology of place, fragmentation, and rhizomatic structures exist in parallel with Yazdani’s personal narratives of being a nomad, being a person of color, of experiencing post-war circumstances in the Middle-East, living in the diaspora, and writing from right to left. Yazdani received a Master of Architecture from the University of Tehran in 2017 and a MFA from Emily Carr University of Art + Design in 2019, where she currently teaches.
She is currently working on an artist run publication as a response to Covid-19 and social isolation titled as a Poem in Distance.
