Join us for a retrospective of works by Tara Najd Ahmadi, presented in partnership with Bristol Experimental and Expanded Film (BEEF).

Ahmadi is an Iranian artist and filmmaker whose recent body of work focuses on creating a panorama of rarely-heard, marginalised stories. Her playful use of the camera reveals subtle socio-political nuances beneath the everyday experience.

  • Measuring the Level of Resistance (2011)
  • Three Minutes of a Headless Life (2014)
  • Productive Frustration (2016)

The screening is presented in partnership with BEEF, and made possible by the support of the West of England Visual Arts Alliance (WEVAA) and The Brunswick Club.
