Minoosh Zomorodinia

Minoosh Zomorodinia is an Iranian-born interdisciplinary artist who makes visible the emotional and psychological reflections of her mind’s eye inspired by nature and her environment. She employs walking as a catalyst to reference the power of technology as a colonial structure while negotiating boundaries of land. Her strollings sometimes reimagine our relationships between nature, land, and technology, while addressing the transformation of memories into actual physical space. Zomorodinia has received several awards, residences, and grants including the Kala Media Fellowship Award, Headlands Center for the Arts, Djerassi Residency, Recology Artist Residency, the Alternative Exposure Award, and California Art Council Grants. She has exhibited locally and internationally including at Asian Art Museum (San Francisco), Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Francisco Arts Commission, and Nevada Museum of Art. Her work has been featured in the San Francisco Chronicle, Hyperallergic, and KQED. She earned her MFA in New Genres from the San Francisco Art Institute, and holds a Master’s degree in Graphic Design and BA in Photography from Azad University in Tehran.
