Mirror

2020 / 7 min. / 7 minutes / 2020 / Country of production: Hungary / Directed by: ZAHRA FULADVAND Video Supervision and editing: MANUEL F CONTRERAS Performer: BERNADETT JOBBÁGY

“The cultural dimension is part of our everyday life in all different countries. The relationship between humans and cultural dimension in social space in Iran is quite different from European countries such as Hungary. This is what Zahra Fuladvand recognized, the difference between Middle Eastern culture and European culture after she started her life in Budapest. A performer totally covered by a veil has a mirror in her hands. The reflection of Zahra Fuladvand (shooting the video) and of the Hungarians in this mirror represent these two cultural dimensions. This project was presented at the Parallel Hungary Exhibition at the Hungarian University of Fine Arts. (January 31 to February 14, 2020) as both video and live performance.”
