Em As Vidas dos mais ilustres pintores, escultores e arquitetos, Giorgio Vasari afirma que Michelangelo supera e vence a todos os artífices antigos e modernos. Este trabalho investiga como Michelangelo alia a virtude de conhecer as regras das artes antigas e a de alçar-se para além delas, a partir do que escreve Vasari acerca do artífice e de sua pintura, escultura e arquitetura, unidas como artes do desenho. As preceptivas de que trata Vasari delimitam o campo para uma análise tanto da observância quanto das variações que Michelangelo insere nas regras de artes da Antiguidade. O antigo, colocado em um novo lugar, abre caminhos para os artífices de todas as gerações posteriores, pois Michelangelo afrouxa os laços que os fazia pintar, esculpir e arquitetar dentro dos estritos limites da tradição greco-romana. / In Lives of the Most Excellent Painters, Sculptors, and Architects, Giorgio Vasari claims that Michelangelo surpasses and triumphs at all the ancient and modern artificers. This research investigates the way Michelangelo associates the virtue of knowing the ancient art rules and the virtue of going beyond them, according to what Vasari writes about the artificer and his painting, sculpture and architecture, gathering as the arts of design. The preceptives which Vasari deals with delimit the field of the analysis of the observance and of the variations Michelangelo inserts in the art rules from Antiquity. The ancient, in a new place, opens ways to the artificers of all posterior generations, since Michelangelo looses the ties which made them to paint, to sculpt and to architect under the strict limits of the Greek-Roman tradition.

A Space In-Between, is a series of works that explores a balance between two radically different cultures that the artist identifies with through visual language. The experience of immigration as an Iranian body in a Western context is investigated through works in sculpture, photography and video. By using the language of materials, the artist explores the diasporic space regarding class, gender, and ethnicity. The practice of creating Iranian designs with American products such as a muqarnas from cigarette cartons from her family’s convenient store in Bessemer, Alabama, or creating a chadorfrom Mossy Oak camouflage, acts as an effort to visualize and harmonize her experience living between Iranian and American culture.
