Artist Biography

Ali Kaeini, an Iranian artist, explores themes of displacement and historical identity through his art. His work delves into memories, forgetfulness, war, power, and solitude, drawing inspiration from Iranian history, art, and architecture. Ali creates intricate geometric structures intertwined with organic, spiral forms, departing from traditional techniques in a rebellious manner. His suspended paintings in space create a sense of barrier and wall, each painting acting as an independent landscape and a wall in front of another. The silhouettes of museum objects in his work serve as metaphors for the displaced body.
