Biography

Amir Farsijani (b. 1988, Tehran, Iran) is a multidisciplinary artist who mostly works in photography and installation with a conceptual approach. He is a graduate of graphic design. Daily urban experiences play a major role in his initial approaches to his works. The first step is the documentation of whatever is considered as standards of urban life. He explains that by using photography for documentation, he can more easily go back to the spaces he has been to. Amir Farsijani usually works with urban objects, and the city is his ‘raw material’.
