Salar Ahmadian

Iranian artist Salar Ahmadian’s most recent works weave together text and colour, tradition and modernity. While the artist studied calligraphic art at university, he also desired to move calligraphy away from merely a traditional representation to a form which included the abstract synthesis of the present. For Ahmadian, his creative process is based upon the crux of his Persian heritage and the achievements of Contemporary Western art history. His paintings pay reference to Ahmadian’s work as a goldsmith, sculptor, designer and traditional calligrapher while also recalling major architectural and artistic elements pivotal to the history of his homeland such as the structure of Iranian mosques, including traditional gilding and metalwork, and also the detail and colour found in Persian miniature paintings.
