Mahsa Biglow
Mahsa Biglow is a New York based, Iranian-born interdisciplinary artist and writer. Her research-based work investigates the intersection of art, mass media, technology, and postcolonialism. She explores these themes in video, installation, and performance through storytelling, oral history, and found footage. With her multi-channel video and sound installations, she creates immersive spaces that grapple with the agenda-setting role of television, social media, and other mass-distributed media. She earned an MFA from Rutgers University and a BFA from the University of Tehran. A writer and associate editor at Kaarnamaa; A Journal of Art History and Criticism, Biglow writes critiques and reviews on contemporary art in the Persian language. Her works have been exhibited nationally and internationally at Mana Contemporary (NJ), Visual Arts Center (TX), The Zimmerli Art Museum (NJ), Vermont Studio Center (VT), The Immigrant Artist Biennial (NY), sUgAR Gallery (AR), Goggleworks Center for the Arts (PA), American Hungarian Foundation (NJ), Stroboskop Art Space in Warsaw, and Silk Road Gallery in Tehran, Iran.
