Presented and hosted by Windsor Art Center, this exhibition and programming will feature two Iranian women artists who have a deep understanding of the history as well as lived experiences to share. Featured artists include Mahsa Attaran and Leila Ghasemi.

Unveiled Silence is an ambitious project that aims to shed light on the prevalent struggles faced by women in Iran, offering a poignant critique of the inhumane regulations, deep-rooted stereotypes, and stifling cultural norms that perpetuate a climate of silence and invisibility. Through this exhibition, the artists endeavor to dismantle the oppressive narratives that consign women to a passive role and create a platform for open dialogue on the urgent need for gender equality.

Opening Reception: Saturday, January 20th 5:00-7:00pm
Artist Talk: Saturday, January 27th 2:00pm
