Sound of Strings Trailer (2012)
01 January 2012 5 mins
On the right screen, I am threading my face which is a form of epilation and is common practice in Middle Eastern countries. This method of threading is used in Iranian culture and it has been a part of my upbringing since a young age. It is also a female bonding ritual, one in which I share with the women in my life and it is typically performed in a private space. This space is commonly reserved for story sharing and dialogue. I attempt to bring the viewer into intimate contact with acts that are usually performed in private; I attempt to create feelings of closeness and familiarity. My performance becomes an offer of intimacy and access.
