Samira Idroos

Samira Idroos is a visual storyteller based in Los Angeles with roots in Sri Lanka. Idroos’s conceptual works combine distinct cultural references to story-tell around shared histories and engage in critical commentary. She employs religious texts and pop culture symbology to progressively question dynamics of power, gender and ownership. 

In a mainstream culture that often misrepresents Islam, Idroos’s artistic process and research-based approach allows her to negotiate belonging and facilitate connections. Her syncretic identity draws from multiple cultures. Idroos gives homage to the lands she comes from as well as the land she inhabits. Her work is subtle, poetic and provocative.
