Code Names
Maryam Tafakory, 2023, UK / IR, performance, English spoken, 18'
Revisiting films made in Iran after 1979, Code Names (2022-ongoing) is an archival search for the unspoken that is speaking – a search for forgotten names, for forbidden bodies, for women’s disappearances both on and off the screen. Tafakory will be narrating live; no two performances of this work are the same, and as recording is not permitted, this piece can only be experienced this once, in person.
