Natascha sadr Haghighian The German/ Iranian artist Natascha Sadr Haghighian is showing her intimately scaled animation Vice/Virtue. The disorienting black and white drawing moves from a quintessential, oppressive prison yard to a theatrical stage and back again. This work makes clear the control and sense of claustrophobia created by two comparable areas of attention- disciplinary supervision and the eyes of the general public and media.
