Hiva Sedaghat is an Iranian choreographer, dancer, and performance artist from Tehran. Coming from a background of architecture, photography, and literature, she first got to know contemporary dance via the underground scene in Tehran which gave her the opportunity to bring together her personal, social, and political experiences through making interdisciplinary pieces that are a mixture of dance, theater, and video. In the interview, we cover this exposure to contemporary dance in Iran, evoking indigenous Iranian mourning rituals as a form of protest, and the synthesis of sound and movement in her current collaboration with Ensemble Decipher.
