Pooneh Maghazehe
Pooneh Maghazehe makes objects, prints, photos and sometimes performs. Using materials often for their symbolic qualities, Maghazehe’s approach to form maps the entanglements of encryption and erasure. The resulting works reveal an intuitive material record keeping that mutually empowers an original and the pulpy residues of its manipulation. Select exhibitions include KinoSaito Art Center, NY, Kathryn Brennan Gallery, NY, CPM Gallery, Baltimore, ICA Philadelphia, and ICA Portland. Pooneh is based in Brooklyn, NY.
