Practice Statement

Kimia Ghofrani creates performance-based installations that move between ritual, image, sound, and embodied action. Her work asks how grief, devotion, memory, and desire can become spatial experiences.

Through repeated gestures of offering, repair, return, and transformation, she builds charged environments where bodies and materials carry emotional knowledge. Her works often sit at the threshold between tenderness and violence, presence and absence, belief and collapse.

Rather than illustrating ideas, Ghofrani creates situations in which abstract states are made physically felt.
