Mursal Mohammadi is a multidisciplinary artist working across photography, moving image, sound, installation, and archival research. She received her MFA in Documentary Media from Toronto Metropolitan University. Her practice investigates migration, displacement, memory, and the afterlives of political violence, exploring how personal and collective histories are carried across generations. Drawing on archival materials, oral histories, found objects, and sensory forms, she creates immersive installations that examine the limits of documentary representation and the ways absence, fragmentation, and silence shape historical memory. Through layered artistic interventions, her work creates spaces where archives become sites of speculation and fragmented histories invite new forms of remembrance.
