Art Talks at Brand is a series that invites contemporary artists to discuss their work and the issues surrounding it, followed by a moderated Q&A with Brand staff member, artist, and writer Jennifer Remenchik. Art Talks at Brand artists are selected to reflect the diversity of the art scene of the greater Los Angeles area. Roksana Pirouzmand (b. 1990 in Yazd, Iran) is a multidisciplinary artist currently living and working in Los Angeles. While performance art is at the core of her practice, her ideas have materialized in mediums such as sculpture, installation, and two dimensional imagery. In her pieces, personal experiences are incorporated into installation systems that suggest the possibility of transformation, deterioration, and movement through interactions between the artist and her work. Pirouzmand received a BFA from California Institute of the Arts in 2017 and an MFA from UCLA in 2022. She has exhibited at François Ghebaly, New York (2024); Spurs Gallery, Beijing (2024); Vernacular Institute, Mexico City (2024); Hammer Museum, Los Angeles (2023); Murmurs, Los Angeles (2022); Del Vaz Projects, Los Angeles (2022); Guest House, Inglewood, California (2022); Make Room, Los Angeles (2022); Simon Lee Gallery, London (2022); Grand Central Art Center, Santa Ana, California (2021); REDCAT, Los Angeles (2020); and The Box, Los Angeles (2019).  The Art Talks at Brand series is sponsored by the Brand Associates. All programs are free and open to the public.
