Mahda Purmehdi
Mahda Purmehdi (b. 1994) is an experimental filmmaker and educator. He works across the mediums of 16mm, Super 8 and digital video, often integrating original images, words, and sounds with reconfigured literary and audio-visual material. At the heart of his filmmaking practice are questions of modes of film production and the political implications of image-making. His films are characterized as visually tactile and handmade evocations, colliding archive and memory, visible and invisible, the living and ghosts, history (especially film history) and the forgotten.
He received his BFA in Film from Tehran University of Art in 2019 and is currently pursuing his MFA in Film at the University of Colorado Boulder.
His films have screened at festivals and venues around the world, including Festival des Cinémas Différents et Expérimentaux de Paris, Light Matter Film Festival, ULTRAcinema, Mimesis Documentary Festival, Festival Fotogenia, Archivio Aperto, BIDEODROMO International Experimental Film and Video Festival, and Fugue State.
