The artist Kubra Khademi (b. 1989) lives in Paris and focuses in her work on her life as a woman and a person with direct experience as a refugee. This makes it both political and highly topical. Multi-faceted themes pervade her art, including her function as mouthpiece and as an element in the fight for the fundamental rights of women, as well as artistic work in exile and in a Muslim society.

In paintings and more recently with the use of photographic techniques and embroidery, Khademi presents tranquil nude female figures that – depending on the angle – can nonetheless be interpreted as provocative. They are juxtaposed with impressive performances that draw on the artist’s own physical experiences as a subject. Khademi focuses her attention on the male-dominated society in countries like her native Afghanistan and the socio-political situation there, linking together motifs from mythology, art history and politics. Kubra Khademi has received many awards for her work, and this overview publication presents her oeuvre in all its complexity.
Since 2021 Hanna G. Diedrichs g. Th. has been the curator of the project at the Museum Pfalzgalerie Kaiserlautern mpk, one of the most important establishments for modern and contemporary art in Rheinland-Pfalz.
