Her applied theatrical strategies posit that working with narratives of the agency of individuals in the face of political or personal change can honor the experiences of participants, slow down and capture elements of contemporary life&#8217;s slippery photographic circulation, and reveal parts of micro-political culture that evade the dramatic binaries of media&#8217;s algorithms.\u00a0Her work is influenced by the Russian avant-garde tradition which strongly ties abstraction, photography, and political expression.\u00a0<br><br>Farrah&#8217;s artwork is in public collections that include the J. Paul Getty Museum, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Museum of Modern Art, San Francisco. She is a recipient of a City of Los Angeles Individual Artist Fellowship (2020), a Fulbright Fellowship to Russia (2018), a Pollock-Krasner Award (2017), a California Community Foundation Mid-Career Artist Fellowship (2014), and a Warhol Arts Writers Grant (2013), among other honors.
