Arash Nassiri, A Bug’s Life, Production Image, 2025. In Auftrag gegeben von Chisenhale Gallery, London; Fluentum, Berlin; und Fondation Pernod Ricard, Paris. Produziert von Chisenhale Gallery.
Created in collaboration with the Chisenhale Gallery, London, and the Fondation Pernod Ricard, Paris, the work takes viewers on a surreal journey through a magnificent Beverly Hills villa—a rare example of Iranian diaspora architecture that emerged in the US after the 1979 revolution.
In the film of the same name, a wooden insect moves through the palatial interior, capturing fragments of conversation that reveal the house as a site of fantasies of upward mobility, social boundaries, and overlapping personal and architectural narratives.
Following its premiere in London, A Bug’s Life will travel to Paris and then to Fluentum in Berlin.
