- Sara Rahbar (born 1976) is a contemporary artist. Her work ranges from photography to sculpture to installation, all of which reveal and transform the artist's personal experiences and are intimately autobiographical. Her work explores concepts of nationalism, separation and belonging - driven by central ideas of pain, violence and the complexity of the human condition. Compelled by an instinctual obsession to piece together and dissect, her approach is reflective of her need to deconstruct her emotions and memories. She constructs her work using collected objects such as; military personal memorabilia, flags, weapons, tools and various collected objects. Sewing them onto textiles and attaching them to wood and metal. As the collected objects begin to get larger and heavier the canvases become tougher and more densely constructed until the objects take over and take on a life of their own. Very organically, the work becomes predominantly sculpture, the results carrying both literal and metaphoric weight. There is a juxtaposition between the iconographic elements that are ever-present in her work and the materials that she actively collects. It narrates a dialogue that directly ties to the objects and symbols in which we place faith. Her many compositions form and act as a tangible, physical cacophony of the relationship between individual and society. She is based in New York. (en)
