Ehsan Fardjadniya

Ehsan Fardjadniya is a visual and performance artist living in exile. With a background in fine arts and a strong focus on storytelling through hybrid and documentary performance forms, his work explores themes of displacement, memory, and the porous boundary between dreams and reality. He has presented his films, performances, and installations internationally, and continues to experiment with animation, co-creative methods, and narrative structures that invite non-actors and audiences to engage as active participants.

Recent projects such as ‘Edgelanders: Amsterdam on Trial’ and ‘Rehearsal of Justice’ explore collective agency, legal imagination, and participatory performance as tools for reclaiming justice narrative power of undocumented people. Next to those projects he is working on his first feature length film ‘House of Dreams’.
