Sahar Homami [IR-CA-DE] is an audiovisual artist/programmer, calligrapher and researcher from Tehran, based in Berlin and Montreal. Their background and approach is multidisciplinary and experimental, driven by combining art, technology, mysticism and literature. Their artistic practice assumes different formats while maintaining a strong anchor on storytelling and real-time generative art, calling it live poetic cinema.
The concepts are expressed through a broad range of forms such as short art film, audiovisual performance & installation, and analogue/digital calligraphy. Homami’s artistic interest is motivated by great emphasis on concept and content, which goes under critical research. Homami is invested in exploring altered states of consciousness through music and image. They strive to push the boundaries of perception and consciousness, to expand our art of seeing. To Homami, seeing spans knowledge, art, ethos and politics.
The art of seeing is the art of being human. saharhomami.com
