Zahid Jiwa

Known for Directing

Zahid Jiwa is a Canadian fine art photographer and filmmaker. Jiwa’s work is often characterized by its complex iconography, thematic portrayal of obscure figures, and unclear cultural references. Existing somewhere between the built and the unbuilt, Jiwa’s compositions and subject matter hint at an obsession with the vanishing cinematic potential of the everyday condition, playing with symbols of historicity, time and aging to render the estranged sensation of urban and rural science fiction.

In the conversation of land of sea, the cliffs are the manifestation of the solid. The first proof, the dermis. These rocks of grandeur, protean sung and cursed by sea-farers, fishermen and many a fortune hunter. The cliffs encompass both a feminine beauty and masculine aggression. Their many shapes, lines and forms are wales, distant memories from scuffling with the winds, the breakers, the rain, the sun, and the storms. “I wake up from Zannone, but the sea, cupping this feeble rock, is still washing through my dreams each night. No matter what shore I reach.”
