Fly Between Walls

Maryam Dehbozorgi is an interdisciplinary artist originally from Iran, currently living in the United States. Her practice spans collage, photography, painting, installation, and video art, unified by an overarching focus: the exploration of dualities—tensions and dialogic interactions between opposing realms.

In her exhibition at Mini Mart City Park, Fly Between Walls, she combines mixed-media, video, and photographs that draw from historical narratives, cultural heritage, and personal memory to investigate the emotional and psychological implications of displacement, loss, and solitude. 

Further, Dehbozorgi’s work engages with the reinterpretation of overlooked or marginalized narratives, offering a critical lens on established systems of meaning, value, and aesthetics. Through a layered visual language, she challenges dominant cultural structures and invites reflection on collective memory, personal history, and the instability of fixed identities. Rooted in the experience of migration and displacement, her practice seeks to reconstruct a renewed relationship with the past and explore shifting notions of “home” and belonging.
