Entrée/Encore
February 24, 2017, 6-8 pm
NARS Foundation is pleased to present Nooshin Rostami’s Within a Circuit, a performance installation as part of its Entrée/Encore public events series. Within a Circuit, made during her six-month residency, is consistent with the undercurrents shaping Rostami’s practice, which involves mapping the fine lines between seemingly paradoxical notions such as human versus machine, static versus fluid and stability versus uncertainty.
