    Memory of Returns
    (University of Oregon, 2023-06) Gutnik, Anastasiya; Farsi, Tannaz
    I always wanted to carry my mother’s family name Vodonos, which translates to water bearer in Russian. Harkening back to generations that came before me, the name traces the labor of walking which provided this essential life-force, water, for loved ones. My thesis work, Memory of Returns is a migration story integrating human and nonhuman journeys. It is a meandering three-channel video installation, exploring embodied ways of coming to know place through layered imagery and non-linear narrative and the question, what if it were possible to tap into latent bodily memories, previous vocations?

    RICE, a queer yellow fantasy
    (University of Oregon, 2023-06) Zeng, William; Farsi, Tannaz
    This text is an accompaniment towards a terminal creative project, RICE, a queer yellow fantasy, and describes the sociopolitical and cultural histories that my artistic practice is engaged in. This paper traces the three years of research and production that has led up to this body of work, and connects my visual work to the fields of Asian American studies, queer theory, and contemporary art.
