Yasaman Mollasalehi is a distinguished artist with nearly a decade of experience, recognized for her compelling and vibrant oil paintings. She earned her Master of Arts in Painting from Manchester Metropolitan University, where she refined her distinctive style and deepened her understanding of visual storytelling.
Drawing inspiration from architecture, nature, people, and memories, her work is characterized by its vivid colours and exaggerated shapes. Her paintings invite viewers to engage with them as they would with a richly woven narrative, transcending linguistic and cultural barriers. Through her art, she aims to foster empathy and understanding, uniting diverse audiences in shared experiences.
Her creative process is profoundly intuitive. She forgoes preliminary sketches, allowing her pieces to evolve organically, layer by layer. This method enables her to channel her introspections and emotions directly onto the canvas, resulting in artworks that are both deeply personal and universally resonant.
Music is an essential element of her artistic practice. It provides her with solace and inspiration, allowing her to detach from her surroundings and delve deeper into her creative process. Her art serves as both refuge and inspiration, particularly in times of adversity, celebrating the resilience and beauty inherent in the human spirit.
Her paintings are a testament to her ability to blend vibrant colours and dynamic forms, creating an enigmatic dialogue within her compositions.
