Soody Sharifi

Soody Sharifi

Houston-based multidisciplinary artist, Sharifi obtained her Master of Fine Arts degree in Studio Photography at the University of Houston. Her work primarily deals with the paradoxes and contradictions inherent in living between two cultures. In many of her series, she has explored the notion of identity and what it means to participate in two cultures from both an outsider’s and an insider’s perspective. Through her work, she investigates this concept as it applies to Muslim youth in Iran and the US and their emerging concept of self-identity specifically how they accommodate modernity and the indulgences and exploration specific to youth within a very traditional society.

Sharifi's work has been exhibited nationally and internationally since 2004 and has been collected by Museum of fine arts in Houston and Portland.
