‘If we aren’t exposed to the beauty, joy and heart of our people -in media, art, films and advertising - we will always be diverted from all that there is to love and champion in ourselves and our roots.’

Huge thank you to Kirsty Major who commissioned me to write this piece after resonating with my work. A perfect start to 2025🎇

My art wouldn’t exist without my community and collaborators. Thank you for believing in and being a part of the mission.

Grateful to the most amazing and talented @roxannavatandoust / @telaharchive & @barbiesclutter , so lucky to be able to bring projects to life with people who share the vision❤️

my heart is still so full<3

after a long and needed feed post hibernation, some moments from my solo show ‘Bound by Two Homes’ in co-curation with @greentble

thank you to absolutely everyone who was part of bringing my first ever show to life it will forever ever hold a very special place in my heart. Everyone who came, connected, laughed, cried, shared their stories, shared time and space: I love you!
Everyone who was part of the process from making the projects to getting them to exist in the space and making it the experience that it was: I love you!!!!!!!

I can’t wait to just keep on creating with all the wonderful people I find and align with in this world and to keep on sharing and bringing together beautiful pure souls. the world needs so much more active love and from our little corner in Hackney I felt it strongly, thank you all💝

I’m no where near done sharing about this & the work itself hehe so this will be all FOR NOW =)

love,
bea 🌷

p.s.I hope everyone’s Nowruz (spring equinox/iranian new year) has been going splendidly! I hope the sun has been helping perk up a huge spring in ur step but equally, sometimes when the sun is shining and we still don’t feel 100% ok it feels odd and strange. I think some confusion and shame can come up as we often expect better weather to do the trick but remember, life cannot be all highs - it would literally be no fun that way. u need the lows u need them u need them and these contrasts are what can help life be more beautiful and things feel truly good when they do. ride it out. give urself love regardless. life can and will feel good again. soooo no! pressure! u r IN life, fill urself with the gratitude of just that and u will have everything u need!

I love u I love u I love u yes !!!u!! coz It’s probably only a few of u reading this far and this makes u very cool

I would like to dedicate this image and win to the loving memory of Sara Tabrizi🕊️❤️ Our beautiful Sara was with us at the picnic during the creating of this image and stays with us forever in our hearts. For me, her spirit is encapsulated in this photograph. I stand here in this ‘self-portrait’ as only a symbol for all the strong-spirited women and people standing in the face of oppression. To all the freedom fighters of our world, you inspire me.

big love to my family, the soil and sun of my motherland and everyone’s continued support 🌹🌙

What Makes Winter Warm
A film by
Bea Dero ‎
‎بیتا غفاریان-درو

‘The war will end, the leaders will shake hands, the old lady will still wait for her martyred son, and that woman will wait for her beloved husband, and those children will wait for their heroic father.
I don’t know who sold the home land, but I know who paid the price. ‘
- Mahmoud Darwish

We wait, together. No one is free, until we all are. This is a prayer for all of humanity and our coming together regardless of race, class or creed. We must extend our love to one another to create some warmth even in the coldest of times. Remove your agenda, tap into your love.
