Shirin
Fahimi

Shirin Fahimi is a first-generation Canadian-Iranian digital media artist based in Toronto. Through digital world-building, she explores the role of occult sciences and mysticism in empowering female presence across political, spiritual, and digital domains. Her work is deeply informed by mystical literature and magical practices from Islamic culture, as reflected in Iranian society and diasporic communities. She has exhibited and performed internationally at venues such as SAVVY Contemporary (Berlin), TIFF Bell Lightbox (Toronto), and the CAFKA Biennial (Kitchener). Her practice has been supported by the Canada Council for the Arts, Ontario Arts Council, and Banff Centre.
