In a practice that encompasses photography, video, drawing and installation, the artist explores the complex and often paradoxical relationship between images and our notions of reality and truth. Although it is not explicitly his main theme, his work is informed by his childhood in Iran and his migration to Europe at the age of 26. The centrepiece of the exhibition at the MEP is the short film Maltournée. The film depicts a missed opportunity to engage with a community of refugees and asylum-seekers living along the Saint-Denis canal, near the Stade de France, who were abruptly evacuated by the police and disappeared. The artist poetically documents their traces, evoking the emotions, situations, and objects that once filled this no-man's-land; through the use of tracking shots, dialogue, and voice-over, he captures the intense presence of their absence.
