GOLNAR TABIBZADEH is a Berlin-based visual artist, storyteller, coach & art researcher. She is the founder and director of Mirror of Creation Projects, Art-Expression Workshops & MOC Art Residency.

Tabibzadeh’s painting are dissections of her surrounding. A reflection of real-life matters and characters stripped from their exterior persona and social skin to expose a coral substantial and rather raw nature.

In her more recent and ongoing projects, she expands her focus towards social issues such as femininity, displacement and trauma.

These projects are research-based visual documentations & archiving of stories of individuals who have experienced trauma in the contemporary era.

Hyle (also known to many as Ilgar) is our Project Assistant and the communication manager at the MOC Residency program.

She is a sculptor and a designer that uses her artistic expression as a way of processing and works primarily with archives, by reclaiming memories as elements of heritage.
