Do our dreams inspire our creations, or is it the other way around? Step into the dreamworld of Nebula Seattle with scenic artist Parmida Ziaei.
An award-winning multidisciplinary artist born and raised in Iran, Parmida has spent her career
creating extraordinary worlds for audiences to inhabit. In the dreamworld, her work explores the
intersection of installation art, architecture, and live performance.
Her scenic design has graced stages across Seattle, including The 5th Avenue Theatre, Seattle
Rep, Village Theatre, and Seattle Children’s Theatre. She’s also a performer, choreographer,
and co-founder of Seda Iranian Theatre Ensemble.
Now, Parmida is bringing her remarkable imagination to Nebula Seattle with an installation in
the Threshold room that bends scale and perception, exploring the deep end of our
subconsciousness.
This October, we will introduce you to the artists dreaming Nebula into existence.
Featuring film from Barry Johnson. Learn more about the behind the scenes at
