The artist Neda Razavipour is present in various guises at the festival. Not only does she play the lead in the film Ziba; several of her works can also be seen and experienced in the Tea House/Gallery Inside Iran. Razavipour exhibits internationally with her installations Dialogue with Open Eyes and Find the Lost One. Her works are a personal approach to Iranian society, captured in moving images.
This work emerges from an artistic commission on the theme of ‘dialogue’. Razavipour thought about it for a long time and also actually wrote a dialogue, but decided at the last moment that silence would be more eloquent.
Dialogue with Open Eyes is an intimate experience. A conversation without words with Razavipour herself on a small monitor. A work about the urge for communication, but the inability to speak. An unbearable silence. In its theme, the work fits in seamlessly with the film Ziba.
