Inspired by the “Woman Life Freedom” uprising which started in Iran against the Islamic Republic regime in September of 2022 following the brutal killing of an innocent Kurdish Iranian girl, Mahsa Jina Amini by government agents, the Iranian Women Institute for Life and Liberty (I-WILL) seeks to provide a platform to raise awareness about, and support, women who have been victims of gender apartheid and discrimination.
In “I-WILL”, we seek to provide a platform to raise awareness about
challenges unique to the under-represented population of immigrant
women, both in their home country and after immigrating to democratic
countries as well as opportunities for them to have a more active role in the
community through advocacy and education.
We aim to raise awareness through cultural events, town halls, networking with local and national human rights and women rights organizations to educate the free world about the reality of the immigrant women’s struggleand empower the immigrant women and those who have suffered years of discrimination and gender apartheid.

MEET THE ARTIST
I’m an Iranian representational artist based in New Jersey. My primary medium is oil paints, however, I love experimenting with different mediums such as charcoal and clay. I studied traditional oil painting techniques at Ridgewood Art Institute under notable artists such as Joel Mitnick and Bill Angresano. As an Iranian immigrant, my cultural background influences and inspires my work. My goal is to enhance my skills and utilize my art to bring attention to overlooked current events, ensuring they are not forgotten in history.
