Sachli Gholamalizad partage son attention soutenue à la cause lors d'une soirée de reconnaissance, de visibilité et d'engagement pour la révolution iranienne.

19:00 performance

M-A is a collective of Iranian women artists based in Belgium. M-A are the initials of Mahsa/Jina Amini, the Kurdish 22 years old Iranian woman arrested on 13th September in Tehran by the morality police because of her “unproper” hijab, She was killed on 16th September while in Police custody. Though the artists in the collective have diverse approaches, they are joined together through their shared experience, and the strong need to speak out. M-A collective’s performances are each time an invitation to witness all the lives that have been taken, to mourn the innocent blood that was spilled, and to explore the value of life in the face of adversity.
