    Sahra Motalebi, Artist in Residence, Chinati Foundation, Marfa, TX

    Chinati Foundation artist-in-residence Sahra Motalebi invites viewers on a visit to Marfa, Texas, where she reflects on what it means to create work away from her home base of New York state. The artist, composer, vocalist, and writer provides perspectives on how our notions of expression are being updated at this time while sharing the surrounding natural desert landscape with us.
