Ghazal Majidi is an interdisciplinary new media artist and filmmaker from Tehran, currently based in Vancouver, Canada. Her body of work spans 3D animation, XR, video game, audiovisual, and film. Distorting conventional narratives, Majidi explores the coexistence of dissonants— the digital vs. the physical, the absurd vs. the sensible, and the mundane vs. the extraordinary. Magical realism is a common genre in her works, probing questions about the nature of memories, dreams, and reality. Her works have been showcased at film festivals and galleries around the world, including Vienna Shorts, Mutek AE, Brussels Independent Film Festival, MONSTRA Lisbon Animated Film Festival, and Künstlerhaus Bethanien Berlin, among others. Majidi holds a Bachelor of Architecture and is currently finishing her MFA in Interdisciplinary Arts at Simon Fraser University.
