About
Filmmaker I Video Artist I Music Producer I DJ
Ava Irandoost is an award winning filmmaker, performance artist, music producer, and Dj. She
grew up in Tehran, and left her country at the age of 18 to study architecture at The University
of the Arts in Berlin, where she received her Masters in Architecture. There, Irandoost discovered
the multifaceted nature of her character, and the desire to tell stories through different
manifestations of art; expressing herself through video work, writing, film, and music.
Irandoost says „ I am interested in creating spaces; internal and external spaces of both the characters and the geometrical room. I want to explore the intersection of these areas, that’s where the story is happening.“
