Director and Choreographer in Tehran, Iran from 2011 to 2014. My work included several physical theatre’s public performances, including LotVit AllWe (2014) and Reading (2013), based on Fernando Pessoa’s writing.
F rustration
F rustration series (exhibited in Xiamen at The Chinese European Art Center -CEAC- 2024), extends Amini’s past performative explorations into the realm of architectural sketches, delving deeply into the emotional undercurrents that arise at the intersection of personal journeys and the built environment. These sketches, while minimalist in form, articulate the silent dialogue to navigate the terrain of human emotion, exploring how frustration—a feeling so universal yet deeply personal—is amplified or mitigated by architectural constructs.
Through layered visual narratives, the work reflects a past where masculinity and femininity coexisted harmoniously, before colonial and modern influences enforced binary structures. By reclaiming historical representations, this work questions dominant narratives, offering a poetic resistance to imposed identities and advocating for a return to a more inclusive, nuanced understanding of gender and self.
