Despite cultural taboos stopping many from speaking out, Tasalla shares her ongoing experiences of censorship around her art and identity. Now in the UK, she seeks to challenge the gaze on queer and female bodies through exhibitions and showcases around the country. Priscillia Kounkou Hoveyda navigated discrimination and denial of her identity while growing up in Iran. She remembers spending most of her life observing mainstream society from the margins. Today as a filmmaker, Priscillia creates space for exploring the different iterations of being black and founded a production hub to explore black Iranian stories to fill the gap in understanding.
