Vian Sora (b. 1976, Baghdad) creates dazzling, layered abstractions that channel the turbulence of life, ancient Mesopotamian history, and Iraq’s diverse natural landscapes. For Sora, the multilayered effects of her paintings give a concrete form to the chaos of life. For its expanded display at AST, ‘Outerworlds’ will feature Sora’s paintings in dialogue with works by sculptor John Chamberlain and painter Etel Adnan.
