Mohammad Barrangi: One Night, One Dream, Life in the Lighthouse

In the exhibition ‘One Night, One Dream, Life in the Lighthouse’, Iranian artist Mohammad Barrangi weaves a dreamlike universe from childhood memories and Persian mythology, revolving around the story of a young Iranian girl’s arrival on the English coast, and contemplating his personal experiences of migration and disability.
In this film, Barrangi and Associate Curator of Exhibitions Dr Laura Claveria share their thoughts on this new commission and bringing Barrangi's unique printmaking practice together with sculpture, installation and sound, beginning with the artist's residency in the University of Leeds' Special Collections.
‘Mohammad Barrangi: One Night, One Dream, Life in the Lighthouse’ can be seen at The Stanley & Audrey Burton Gallery, University of Leeds, from 1 May - 20 July 2024.
