This is Not a Scarf: Elahe Moonesi & Somaye Farhan

            This is Not a Scarf: Elahe Moonesi & Somaye Farhan

This work is presented by two Iranian women artists who are giving an uncanny interactive performance on the stairs of Place Des Art open space.

The performance explores Identity; Women subjectivity and ownership.

Come, read the instruction and create alongside with the performer: This endurance work invites the spectator participate by reading the instruction and interacting.

A brief read on subjectivity:

"As an approach to women's history, subjectivity looks at how a woman herself (the "subject") lived and saw her role in life. 

Subjectivity takes seriously the experience of women as human beings and individuals. 

Subjectivity looks at how women saw their activities and roles as contributing (or not) to her identity and meaning. 

Subjectivity is an attempt to see history from the perspective of the individuals who lived that history, especially including ordinary women. 

Subjectivity requires taking seriously "women's consciousness."
