Diaspora Letters is a multimedia art project by artist and historian Beeta Baghoolizadeh 

 

Born and raised in Los Angeles to Iranian immigrant parents, Beeta Baghoolizadeh (PhD, History, University of Pennsylvania) was raised in the Iranian diaspora capital of the world, Tehrangeles. Contrary to her last name, she is not a fan of baghali polo.

“Diaspora Letters” examines the boring and the mundane of everyday life in Iran and features abstracted portraits of her own family members. Diaspora Letters is represented by Twelve Gates Arts.
