In 2018 she was awarded the Walters Prize by international judge Adriano Pedrosa.Selina Ershadi is an Iranian-born, Aotearoa based artist who works across filmmaking and writing, drawing upon personal and familial histories and archives. Ershadi’s work complicates straight-forward autobiography and troubles the camera’s relationship to lived reality, making visible the risks and failures that haunt any act of documenting. Her film Amator (2019), co-made with her mother Azita Chegini, is the first Farsi language artwork in the Te Papa Tongawera collection. Ershadi's work has been exhibited widely including Bangkok Experimental Film Festival, Te Pātaka Toi Adam Art Gallery, The Physics Room, Govett-Brewster Art Gallery, Dunedin Public Art Gallery, and the 2025 BFI London Film Festival.
