Studio Mandate

Barr Aqdas Studios, founded by Shoghi Aqdas, is a multidisciplinary practice that engages visual art, moving image, and spatial environments.

The studio’s work explores conditions of perception, transformation, and human presence, often situating the viewer within carefully constructed experiential frameworks. Through a synthesis of material, narrative, and form, each project operates as both an autonomous work and part of a broader inquiry into contemporary experience.

Working across formats, the Studio maintains a deliberate approach to production and presentation, favoring precision, restraint, and conceptual continuity. Releases are limited and developed through a controlled process that reflects the mandated commitment to longevity and cultural relevance.
