Why Iris?
An Iris is the mechanism through which light enters a camera, but within the captivating tapestry of cinema, it metamorphoses into a radiant gateway, illuminating the very essence of humanity and crafting narratives that etch unforgettable imprints on our souls. Taking inspiration from this ethereal keyhole the Iris Arts Institute amplifies that light, hoping to be just a small part of spreading it for all to see.
