Event Description

Join us in Welcoming artist Mozhdeh Sajadi Hezave, @mozhdehsajadi62 , to the MoCL Gallery This Saturday! This is a quick exhibition, so you won't want to miss it!

About The Artist:
Mozhdeh Sajadi is a contemporary Iranian artist whose multimedia approach explores themes such as female identity, freedom, cultural censorship, resistance, and oppression. Using media such as painting, video art, and performance, she creates complex, layered narratives that reflect the lived experiences of women within socio-cultural contexts. In her most recent body of work, Sajadi draws upon the collective memory of dance and communal joy—rooted in Persian cultural traditions—as both a form of resistance and a restorative act. Through this approach, she proposes the preservation and celebration of cultural rituals as a means of countering repression and envisioning emancipatory futures.

Her work has been featured in four solo exhibitions and ten group exhibitions across Iran, Canada, and the United States. Notable international appearances include Collective Punishment at Musa Collective (Boston) and Lost and Found in Tehran at the Columbus Museum of Art (Ohio).

Sajadi is currently pursuing an MFA in Visual Arts at the University of Victoria in Canada. She holds a Master’s degree in Painting from Soore Art University and a Bachelor’s degree in Painting from the University of Science and Culture in Tehran. In addition to her artistic and scholarly pursuits, she has also taught as a university art instructor in Iran, further intertwining creative practice with critical discourse in her educational work.

Opening: Saturday, September 11th, 1-4PM.
Gallery Hours: Thursdays (5-8PM), Saturdays (1-4PM), until September 25th.
Address: 750 Fairfield Rd. Wheelchair Accessible through East Entrance.
