Sara Ghazi Asadollahi

Sara Ghazi Asadollahi (born 1984) is an Iranian-born, Atlanta-based multidisciplinary artist who works across painting, sculpture, and video. Her work centers on ruins and abandoned places: palimpsests of past civilizations that recall the skeletal structures left by war and hold absence and presence at once.

During the pandemic she made paintings that each pair one of her sculptures with a single gummy bear, a candy she ties to childhood in postwar Iran, to consider shelter, emptiness, and void. The video Cast (2021) builds its set from one of her paintings and one of her sculptures to examine chance and accident through video-game logic. Chaos (2022) is a visual interpretation of a poem by the Iranian poet Forough Farrokhzad.

She holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees in painting from Tehran Art University (2012, 2014) and an M.F.A. from the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis (2019). She is a Ph.D. candidate in film and media studies at Georgia State University, where she has taught film analysis and theory, and an instructor in Film and Media at Emory University. She also writes on cinema for In Media Res.

Her exhibitions include Nord Art in Germany (2017, 2018, 2023) and solo shows at Vista Art Gallery in Tehran and at Bruno David Gallery, which has represented her since 2020. In 2023–24 she took part in the Alliance Theatre’s Reiser Atlanta Artists Lab. Her honors include the John T. Milliken Foreign Travel Graduate Award (2019) and a residency award from the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown.
