Her middle name, SHAHRZAD, is a nod to the infamous storyteller from Persian folklore. Then again, she is dynamic on Instagram under her client name slaterfamilyfoundation. In any case, her bona fide individual client Id is as yet under wrap. The artist drew inspiration for the pieces from her heritage and identity as a first generation, mixed, Iranian-American. Meet Shahrzad Slater On Instagram Shahrzad Slater has gotten heaps of consideration from general society for her conjugal relationship, where individuals need to know her Instagram Id. “But as community members share space with the installation, I hope our energies meld and for a moment, we can live like children, curiously together.“ “Before a person enters the space, these structures are just symbols of my artistry-defined by a Persian-ness, a Zoroastrian superstition, and an obsession with the internet,” said SHAHRZAD. The large, colorful figures are juxtaposed by the hard, industrial materials they are made from including 600 pounds of hydrocal and 1,000 feet of quarter-inch steel rod-meant to express the collective contradiction of emotions experienced over the past year and a half exacerbated by the pandemic and global social unrest. The six sculptures-including a hand, flame, “evil eye”, squiggle, rainbow, and smiley face -vary in height from four to six feet. SHAHRZAD conceived the idea for the eccentric structures from digital symbolism, Zoroastrian superstition, and Instagram pop-up culture with the intention of creating a space of fantasy in the heart of San Luis Obispo. The SLO County Arts Council tapped local artist, SHAHRZAD, to produce the whimsical installation, “Untitled VI” as part of August’s City-sponsored featured cultural nonprofit. Six brightly colored, imaginative structures adorn Mission Plaza in August as the final installation this season in the City’s Plaza Pop-Up series that began in April.
