بیوگرافی

Amin Yousefi (Iran, 1996) lives and works in London. He holds an MA in Documentary Photography from the University of Westminster. He has participated in several international group exhibitions, awards, and prizes. His recent project, "Eyes Dazzle as They Search for the Truth," was selected as a finalist of the Carte Blanche Awards at Paris Photo in 2022. His work has been published in magazines such as Aperture, Hapax, and Source. Yousefi has also undertaken compelling commission works, including the project "Ruderal Acts, Gardening Beyond the Wall," showcased as part of the HerMAP Art Project at the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, Belgium. He was also selected as an Ag Talent for his work titled "Life, Death, and Other Similar Things" in 2019, which was exhibited in a solo show at the Ag Galerie. A native of Abadan in the province of Khuzestan, Iran's most oil-rich region and the scene for Iran's bloody war with neighbouring Iraq, Yousefi's work deals with themes related to the socio-political landscape, the violence against protests in the Middle East, story-making through hidden archives, effects of war, and how the act of photography can conceptually mirror the structures of these relationships.
