Somayeh Kashi Creative Guts

    • Arts

In this episode of Creative Guts, co-hosts Laura Harper Lake and Sarah Wrightsman sit down with photographer, oil painter, and art educator Somayeh Kashi. Somayeh’s name may sound familiar if you’re in the Concord, NH area and recall her photo project, “Diversity in the 603”. Over the summer of 2019, Somayeh, alongside a group of high school students, interviewed and photographed nearly 100 individuals. While the subjects were diverse in age, gender, and ethnicity, “Diversity in the 603” demonstrated how much we all have in common. Somayeh, who is Iranian-American, tells the powerful story that inspired the project and the technical difficulties along the way! You’ll also hear the serendipitous way Somayeh fell in love with painting, and meet her creative — and incredibly busy — family. Her husband, a drummer in a metal band; her daughter, a full-fledged theater geek; and her son who, to everyone’s surprise, somehow likes sports. Somayeh’s story is beautifully told, and we’re pleased to help her share it.

Check out Somayeh’s art online at www.somayehkashi.com and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/SomayehKashiArt and see what’s going on in the Rundlett Middle School art department at www.art4rms.com and on Facebook www.facebook.com/Art4RMS.
