Zahra Khan's Interview
Ghada Amer
"For me, the choice to be mainly a painter and to use the codes of abstract painting, as they have been defined historically, is not only an artistic challenge: its main meaning is occupying a territory that has been denied to women historically. I occupy this territory aesthetically and politically because I create materially abstract paintings, but I integrate in this male field a feminine universe: that of sewing and embroidery. By hybridizing those worlds, the canvas becomes a new territory where the feminine has its own place in a field dominated by men, and from where, I hope, we won’t be removed again".

Arranged Marriage
One experience they express in common is 'identity theft': being robbed of Iran and their past, of their rights, of their womanhood, of modernity, of personal security, of individuality, of color, of music. The sense of loss is found in their work and in the irresistible naturalness of their words.
Arranged marriage in Middle Eastern cultures has been a popular tradition for many years and still exists today. Young women from countries like Pakistan are wedded off to men they have never had a conversation with. This issue requires further observation because we neglect the lack of freedom men impose upon women. This dilemma is dear to me because people around me are unhappy with the choices their parents have made.
