Venus; Where the Sun Rises in the West and Sets in the East.

Zahra Ghyasi

In “Venus; Where the Sun Rises in the West and Sets in the East,” Zahra Ghyasi continues the same approach of examining the disintegrations of reality. This time, however, she throws herself to a fantastic planet to go on in her imaginary adventure and instead of her usual literal-historical references, she seeks refuge in her subconscious.
