Short biography

Anahita Iranmanesh (b. 1973, Kerman, Iran) is an Iranian painter. Trained in graphic design at the University of Kerman, she has painted since 1987 and, since 2018, has developed an abstract language centred on colour, movement and the human figure beyond gender. She has held six solo exhibitions in Tehran and online, and is a member of Caroun Art Gallery, Canada.

Full biography

Anahita Iranmanesh has been painting since 1987. Beyond the painting courses of high school and university, she studied in the studios of Mohammad Hojabri Ebrahimi and Mohammad Emam in Kerman.

Starting with realism, she worked her way through different schools of art to contemporary modern painting by 2000, and since 2018 she has been devoted to developing an abstract language of her own.

Her works centre on the emotional dialogue between colour, movement and inner experience.

Artist statement

My abstract works are shaped by the emotional and social events surrounding me. Influenced by Bahman Mohassess, I explore the human figure beyond gender, through expressive forms, colours and movements. My process begins with improvisation, allowing ideas rooted in life experiences to evolve naturally across the canvas.

I seek to engage viewers who approach painting as a narrative — those who explore, interpret and construct meaning within abstraction.
