 Recycling and reducing waste has been a deep, international concern since the early 1990s, when Shahrokh first began to use recycled paper in her work.As well as feeding ‘Shahrokh’s desire to be in harmony with her environment,’ it is also a form of her own personal conceptual problem solving.Within her studio practice she has collected many different forms of detritus, such as leaves, which she treats and uses as small, miniature canvases, or sticks, bottles and other objects with which she forms large-scale, site-specific installations in the desert landscape.
