Myth of 4
Myth of 4, a Zamin Project founded by Shaghayegh Cyrous, and, presented by Clarion Alley Mural Project in collaboration with Central Stage, Artists’ Television Access (ATA), the David Ireland House, and Hamzianpour & Kia Gallery in Los Angeles showcased new videos and performances by ten Iranian artists based in the Bay Area, and video by ten additional artists from the SWANA diaspora. Myth of 4 reimagines and recreates our present and future. The participating artists redefined their imaginary worlds, inspired by the four elements, Earth, Water, Air, and Fire. The theme of Afsaneye 4/ Myth of 4 blossomed out of a series of conversations between the participating artists in the project.

Life! Freedom! The Wind in My Hair, showcasing art performances, music, murals, and poetry by Iranian artists and allies in the Bay Area and beyond, standing in solidarity with Iranian women and to call for the end of oppression by the state of Iran. Deep respect and honor for those who have put and are putting their lives on the line in the name of women’s/human rights and the end to the treatment of women as second class citizens!
