Cassidy Brauner Jarrahi’s research and work focus on the vernacular and the less considered, historically significant, images, objects, and stories - pushing up against singular definitions of reality by unpacking the personal alongside the public and the shared. She explores these themes through photography, video, performance, and mixed media/text. Cassidy has exhibited her work in shows nationally and internationally. Cassidy is enthusiastic about the strengths and expansiveness of pedagogical practice for her students and herself – focusing on interdisciplinary approaches, student centered learning, and community engagement. Specifically, she has been working with arts and recovery health programs.
