Fereshteh Toosi Collection
Toosi, Fereshteh
Fereshteh Toosi is an artist, educator, and learner whose work involves encounter, exchange, and sensory inquiry. They produce immersive performances in conjunction with small sculptures, short films, installations, scores, and poetry, often situated in gardens, parks, and waterways. The audience listens, walks, or even floats while engaging in a series of affective activities and group meditations. People are invited to slow down and reflect upon the layers of human and other-than-human life, usually in an urban landscape. These experiences are designed to support people to reconnect with the land, speculate about ecological futures, and construct their own spatial narrative. Documentation of Fereshteh’s artwork is available at http://fereshteh.net and http://oilancestors.com
The items in this collection were created during the artist's A/A project with WAAM from 2022-2024. The collection consists of extensive digital photography which document the workshops and participatory projects conducted during Solar Salutations.
