Mitra Tabrizian:
Another Country
Wapping Project
Bankside
21 September – 2
November 2012
Born in Tehran, the photographer and film-maker Mitra
Tabrizian has lived in London since 1977. As such, she is one of the nearly 3
million individuals making up the Iranian diaspora worldwide. It is perhaps not
surprising then to find that her work deals primarily with the themes of
displacement and exile, and that her most recent series, Another Country (2010), currently on show at Wapping Project
Bankside, focuses on the politics of everyday life for Muslim communities in
the UK.
