Mahnaz Karimi is a multi-award-winning artist who works in the realms of contemporary art, fine art, and installation art. She was born in the Iranian capital of Tehran in 1984. Her passion for drawing began in her adolescent years and blossomed when she decided to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Graphics at Alzahra University in Tehran, Iran.
She has mastered the techniques and chemistry of her medium, allowing her to further enhance and expand the process. She has managed to incorporate a variety of artistic techniques while also expressing her issues in a variety of forms and materials. Nature, peace, passion, and connecting the past and present are all notions and storylines that run through all of her works of art.
Her paintings are mostly based on pouring, which entails applying paint with a pouring technique rather than a brush. This fluidity, combined with the unexpected nature of resin, allows her to more accurately explore many textures seen in nature than any other media. Art is her first means of expressing sentiments, showing different sides of nature and realities of life to viewers, emphasizing the positive and easing the negative. Her take on unique issues and products is called design.
Her sculptures will be on display at DIFC Arts Nights in November 2021 and at the Al Murabba Arts Festival in October 2021. Her limited-edition artworks were also on display at World Art Dubai 2021. Her wall art design ‘Dandelion and Wishes’ was selected to be presented at Hebei International Industrial Design Week in China, and she got the Bronze A design Award 2020 in the Arts, Crafts, and Ready-Made Design Category for the 2019-2020 term. She came in at #131 out of all the designers who entered the Arts, Crafts Design Award in the previous thirteen years.
