Photobook

In her works, Ate Moeini contends with the feeling of powerlessness through photography to resist the oppressors that work towards controlling and restricting image makers. For the artist, a simple photograph can be a powerful conveyance of agency and resistance as well as a therapeutic outlet. Her work reveals the transient nature that sheds light on one of the multitudinous possibilities of meaningful subversion. 

Atefe Moeini (B.1998) is an interdisciplinary artist based in Tehran, Iran, working primarily with the photographic image. Her work explores themes of identity, gender, politics, and violence. Besides other forms of representation, the photobook is the medium that she privileges to communicate her work through. Moeini has completed a long-term photobook program with the Penumbra Foundation and was a recipient of the Prince Claus Seed Award in 2021.

Her work has been published in the British Journal of Photography, the New York Times, and the Tbilisi Photo Festival, among others. In her works, she contends with the feeling of powerlessness through photography as a means to resist the Islamic oppressors that works towards controlling and restricting imagemakers. For the artist, photography is a small and simple but powerful conveyance of agency and resistance, an outlet, and a therapeutic means. Her work reveals the transient nature of regimes and sheds light on one of the multitudinal possibility of meaningful subversion.
