ABOUT THE ARTWORK

My series “Let us believe in the beginning of the cold season” consists of life-size photo prints of a diverse group of women. Starting with photographic prints, I paint, collage, and sew onto portraits of women, responding to the textures of their clothing and faces with paint, thread, and real human hair. I explore the symbolism of pattern, drawing parallels between ubiquitous American plaid and Iranian weaving, textile, and text. In Lucy, I used other elements to cover faces. So covering or veiling is a key concept I am working with.

Sara Madandar is an Iranian multi-disciplinary artist and educator based in New Orleans. She received her MFA from the University of Texas at Austin and her BA in painting from Azad University of Art and Architecture in Tehran. Through a range of media such as painting, video, installation, and performance, Madandar explores migration and the human experience of living between cultures, using the aesthetics of language, clothing, and bodies to study the complexities of cross-cultural experiences. Most recently, she was in residency at Joan Mitchell Center and Santa Fe Art Institute (SFAI). Sara is also a co-founder of the Parlour Gallery and Camp Street Studios, an artist-run space in the heart of New Orleans' downtown art district. Some of her accolades include an award from the Texas Visual Artists Association (TVAA) and an award from the Southeastern College Art Conference (SECAC) for work presented in an exhibition curated by Jessica Beck of the Andy Warhol Museum. Sara’s work has been featured at New Orleans Museum of Art, New Orleans Contemporary Art Center, Austin City Hall, Elisabeth Ney Museum, Elga Wimmer PCC (NYC), and many others. Sara will be in residency at Santa Fe Art Institute (SFAI) in the summer of 2022.
