REZA AZIMIAN

Reza Azimian is a self-taught painter whose major in sociology has become the focus of his professional career as an artist. Exploring our changing culture and its parallel effects on our identities and social conducts, Azimian has a distinctive way of expression; finding inspiration in what he finds in his surroundings and what he finds surfing the net. His findings on the net are not just limited to the at hand images but also the experience concerned such as the inaccessibility of a site or the unloading of a page. These; however, are only the outer layer of his conscious apprehension of social issues.
