Darya Andijan

Opleiding
Master of Film
Lichting
2025

Born in the Uighur region, now studying for a master at the Netherlands Film Academy. She utilizes the carpet as a reflective process, weaving symbolism, myth, and family history t activate the healing power of the ‘divine feminine’ and explore themes of oppression. 
Her research project, 'Do you know that I’m with you,' is searching for 'Gülam,' a woman who shares the same name as carpets in the Uighur language. 

How can we reimagine a future from our past?
How do we liberate an imprisoned language?
Through Gülam’s myths, Darya explores and connects the missing history of female makers in Central Asia
