'face to face' is a moving portrait of stillness and archival chaos, navigating intergenerational identity. The Iran–Pakistan border marks a pivotal moment between execution and freedom where the artist’s family fled persecution during the 1979 Iranian Revolution. Her mother writes a poem of universality by a celebrated Persian poet Rūmī, on her brother’s face juxtaposed by the visual and vocal monotony that distorts connectivity; being eye-to-eye, face-to-face.
