In his practice, Fariborz Karimi explores dream-like performative setups and the playful nature of the theatrical apparatus. He is actively engaged in developing remote collaborations with artists residing in non-European contexts, while also delving into the nuanced meanings of absence, presence, and co-creation.
His recent research has centered around the concept of 'self-censorship' across various contexts, examining its relationship to our environment through the lenses of 'friendship,' 'intimacy,' and 'collaboration'.
