Simin Eivazi is an Iranian-born American artist living and working in the French Alps. Through both literal and metaphorical approaches, her practice explores all that is related to the notions of displacement, home and homemaking, influenced by personal, historical and political narratives and contextualized by her identity. Ranging from making domestic objects to spontaneous performances occurring at her home-studio or writing short stories inspired by her childhood in her native country Iran, she examines the ethics and aesthetics of art making at the intersection of politics of femininity and craft. Her multidisciplinary approach is informed by processes that are in particular time-based and labor-intensive such as planting, natural dyeing, ceramic and textile making as well as writing, darning, repairing, found object work and performance.

Eivazi obtained her BFA in sculpture with an emphasis in performance at California College of the Arts in San Francisco and completed her MA in art and politics at Goldsmiths, University of London as a Jack Kent Cooke scholar. Her literary work began with a few performative translations of the Encyclopedia of Women Culture Makers in Iran and in the World, Woman from Inscription to History written by Pouran Farrokhzad from Persian to English, further which it grew into short story writing. She has practiced creative writing under the direction of the prominent feminist Iranian writer Shahrnush Parsipur for numerous years. Eivazi is a recipient of the 2023 Future Art Award (Woman. Life. Freedom) and her work has been exhibited in the U.S., U.K. and France including at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter.
