Join us as we journey through Rah Eleh's imaginative realm, where art serves as a bridge between past, present, and speculative futures, and where each piece invites viewers to reconsider the narratives that shape our world.

In this ArtBeat episode, we delve into Rah Eleh's world, an artist intertwining identity, culture, and futuristic concepts through video, digital, and performance art. Rah, a PhD candidate in Vienna, crafts a distinct narrative using parody and allegory to question and redefine notions of identity.

Globally recognized, from the Venice Biennale to Oslo's National Museum, Rah's work has earned her accolades and residencies, affirming her influence in contemporary art. Her art, enriched by queer and rave cultures and her Iranian roots, acts as a vibrant platform for cultural dialogue and self-discovery.

Rah discusses her VR residency in New York, collaborations with Waack dancers, and "Xenofuturism," her project exploring ethnic futurism's role in art. She addresses the Canadian art scene's dynamics, her effort to subtly integrate political messages, and her enthusiasm for forthcoming endeavors, including a Getty research trip and a Swiss group exhibition.
