“Through my work, I explore non-duality in relation to identity. I was raised in Norway with an Iranian father and a Thai mother, so this subject matter is personal to me. It’s as if I’m from many places, but also from no place - at the same time. The general expectation is: Who you are and where you’re from, should be dictated by a singular geographical location on a map, a simplification of a complex reality. Through my characters and their nuances and complexities, I’m hoping to challenge the monotonous idea of identity as something homogeneous and static, while transforming notions of opposites into synthesis.
