Ghazaal Nasiri (b. 1999, Shiraz, Iran) is a visual artist living and working in Oslo, Norway. She studied for her bachelor’s degree in painting at the Shiraz University of Arts in Iran and received an M.F.A. at the National Academy of Arts in Oslo.
Ghazaal explores automatism in personal histories. Her practice investigates conditioned responses to trauma and violence. As an artist from Iran, she finds human source material to be her primary inspiration. Her work binds the past and present, exploring the repercussions of untethering minds under repressive, innate self-censorship.
The traditional craftsmanship of Qashqai women plays a central role in Ghazaal’s practice. Intertwined with an outsider’s vision, these conventional methods are an intrinsic characteristic of her visual style.
