Journey into Middle Eastern culture, identity, and resistance through art with Israeli-born artist Dorit Cypis and Iranian activist/artist Elahe Amani. In this conversation, they reflect on growing up in Israel and Iran, the Iranian Revolution, hijab and women’s rights, censorship, diaspora, and how informal and professional arts—from painting and poetry to performance—sustain women, challenge power, and inspire hope. If you’re interested in Middle Eastern culture and arts, women’s voices, Iran, Israel, and art as social justice, this dialogue will give you powerful stories, context, and inspiration.
