Kamran Behrouz (1984) is a visual artist born and raised in Tehran, currently working and living in Zurich. Kamran's PhD thesis entitled "Cosmopolitics of the Body" uses posthuman critical theory as a navigational tool to explore the boundaries of bodies and the embedded and embodied cultures of humanity. Kamran works with diverse media, combining the act of painting with animation, installations, motion capture and (virtual) performance.
Queer identity permeates all of Kamran's art to draw a cartography of belonging and displacement. Image politics centre their visual practices, transfigured in their theoretical works, as cultural translation, coding, textual commerce, and immersive art as a form of knowledge production and distribution.
