STATEMENT

In the background of each work of art, there is a narrative, of war, of the event, and of the inner events of an artist that cannot be denied. A narrative of anger, of protest, and anything that frightens the artist.

The image in the contemporary world is undergoing great changes, collage is a situation for me or it can be said that it is a very important event that in the space of modernist painting offers very new solutions and opportunities for the artist. The collage has been an exciting achievement for me. Play with all forms, photos as well as colors.

Attempts have been made to show that good periods are being destroyed and that peace will never be sustained, and that this is the truth of human life.

BIO

Fariba Rahnavard, born in 1984, is a modern and contemporary Iranian painter. He started painting professionally at the age of 18. After a few years, he entered the Faculty of Art and Architecture of the University of Central Tehran. During these years, due to his intense interest in the tragedies of the modern world, he turned to abstract expressionism, which has often been associated with the subject of history, violence and catastrophe in the modern world. His works were later exhibited in international biennials and exhibitions, including the Florence Biennale and the Manhattan International Competition.
