Pictured is Paria Moazemi Goodarzi with her work The Redistribution of Memory A RESPONSE to the way the UK Home office “dehumanises” people has been created by Iranian-born artist Paria Goodarzi, who is now based in Glasgow. It reflects her personal experience of the British citizenship process and is part of the Alternative Degree Show Festival being staged by Gasgow School of Art (GSA) graduates. Her artwork, The Redistribution Of Memory, features five golden cages in golden barbed wires which hold woven balls made from the shredded letters she received. The backdrop shows a video of her creating each ball, which took two hours for each one.
