ABOUT ME

Armin Amirian was born in 1995 in Iran. As a self-taught freelance artist, he spent his childhood and teenage years exploring different mediums of art. Affected by the world, people and culture, his professional journey in art with the passion he had for photography and cinema started at the beginning of his teenage years. The role of looking got more prominent for him with the arrival of a photography camera into his life.

In Armin’s own words, art was always what he knew could communicate with everyone. “All I had in me as a young soul could be said only by the alphabet of art; where nothing matters but the truth and the honest feelings you place in every aspect of your creation.”

Armin has contributed to more than 100 festivals and exhibitions throughout the years and had his solo exhibitions like “hICEstory” (2021) and “A’ar” (2018) both at Etemad Gallery, and his Artsy “Surreal Scapes” by Janet Rady Fine Art Gallery (UK 2022).
