122 - Soheila Sokhanvari

One of the judging panel for the Trinity Buoy Wharf Prize mentioned in blog post 121 is Soheila Sokhanvari.

I really enjoyed this video post about her work published on the Barbican's YouTube channel. 

She talks us through mixing egg tempera paints by hand, the roots of her style (Persian miniature painting) and her subject - the former (currently oppressed and outlawed) women artists of Iran.
