Bita Fayyazi, potter, sculptor, and contemporary installer, was born in Tehran. she is one of the pioneers of installation art in the years after the revolution. Fayyazi studied and lived in England between 1975 and 1982. After returning to Iran, she learned the methods of pottery and ceramic making in the Cultural Heritage Organization and porcelain factory workshops, and from 1990 to 1997, she was engaged in making pottery and embossed tiles. Fayyazi participated in the Biennale of Pottery and finally won the special prize at the 6th Biennale of Contemporary Ceramic Art in Tehran in 1998. In these years, Fayyazi also turned to sculpt with mud and plaster.

With the works she created in the 90s, Fayyazi challenged the official definitions of art at that time. He was interested in interdisciplinary methods and the presentation of artworks in public arenas. Her artworks, from the way of production to the form of presentation, were not compatible with the museum's view of art and limited it to conventional formats. The "Death of Animals on the Road" installation was her first significant step in this direction; In this performance, which is also known as "dead dogs," 200 bodies were made in the shape of crushed dog carcasses and arranged on the side of Tehran's highways, which was a reminder of the road deaths of animals.

A year after that, in a group exhibition called "Experience 77", an installation using 200 clay figures of crows and empty fruit boxes and playing with the shadow of the figures on the walls was performed in a workshop. In 1999, in another group exhibition titled "Blue Children, Black Sky," with white plaster statues of children playing in a room full of dark images, she addressed the issue of air pollution in Tehran. Maziar Bahari, Khosro Hassanzadeh, and Sadegh Tirafkan were her collaborators in this project. Mass reproduction of more or less identical figures in the environment is a method that Fayyazi often uses to express her ideas; This multiplication of volumes creates the desired spatial effect. She repeated the same central statement in her subsequent work periods in international art centers with wider dimensions. For example, in 2001, she made 2,000 terracotta figures of insects and exhibited the result in the group exhibition "Iranian Contemporary Art" at the Barbican Center in London. In 2014, she participated in the 51st Venice Biennale with an installation called "Ghesmat"; A cloud of bronze sculptures of babies was presented at the event.

She also has the experience of a performance in her portfolio: a 20-minute walk with a dress decorated with souvenir photos and symbolic arrays and an iron cane in front of the National Museum of Yerevan, Armenia.
