ART PRACTICAL (SAN FRANCISCO) -- Memory, both personal and collective, exists on a threshold: belonging neither fully to the past nor the present, it occupies its own unique in-between space. Once at Present: Contemporary Art of Bay Area Iranian Diaspora at Minnesota Street Project, sponsored by the Center for Iranian Diaspora Studies at San Francisco State University, revels in this space as a site of cultural production.
Through the act of remembering, the works in “Once at Present” give shape, form and sound to the unseen traces of diasporic life.
