Raheleh "Minoosh" Zomorodinia (Persian: مینوش زمردی نیا) is an Iranian-born American interdisciplinary visual artist, curator, and educator. Working across photography, video, installation, performance, and ephemera, her practice explores the self, home, nature, and the environment.

Rooted in culture, faith, and politics, Zomorodinia’s work investigates the shifting terrain of the self in relation to place. Her recent practice draws from nature and ritual, particularly the act of walking. By tracing her movements through digital mapping, she transforms journeys into sculptures that evoke nomadism, colonial histories, and the remapping of memory. These works question belonging, ownership, and the ways lived experience becomes physical space.

We look forward to holding space with Zomorodinia on Saturday, July 18, 4 - 6 PM in the artist’s East Bay studio as the ongoing geopolitical conflict in the Middle East continues to impact her homeland and its people.
