Pegah Pasalar
Sunday

Pegah Pasalar (born in 1992) is an Iranian interdisciplinary artist currently based in Chicago. She received her bachelor’s degree from the Art University of Tehran majoring in cinema editing. She is a full-merit scholarship awardee at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where she holds a master of fine arts in studio with an emphasis in film and video. The theme of her work is centred on the position of women in the family and society, social criticism of childhood and parenting, displacement and transitions. She reflects on these themes through different hybrid mediums and forms using a personal but holistic, poetic yet resonant way.

Pegah is currently continuing to work on a series of short films, each titled after a day of the week. After completion of Sunday, Saturday and Monday, she is now developing Tuesday. Each of these works takes place over the course of one day and the main protagonist is always a woman with contemporary concerns.

She has shown her works in multiple national and international festivals and venues such as: Athens International Film and video film festival, Onion City, Chicagoland shorts Vol. 6, Berlin Revolutionary Film Festival, Music Theatre, Gene Siskel, Logan Theater, and more.
