Iranian artist's surrealist work explores restrictions on women and immigrants

As a young woman in Iran, and later as an immigrant to the U.S., artist Arghavan Khosravi has been subjected to many restrictions. But on the canvas, she renders it all through fanciful and magical layers. Jared Bowen of GBH Boston met up with her at Khosravi's first museum show at the Currier Museum of Art in Manchester, New Hampshire. It's part of our arts and culture series, "CANVAS."
