Maryam Eivazi Iranian, b. 1980

Maryam Eivazi (b. 1980, Tehran) is an abstract painter who lives and works in the city of Karaj, Iran. Having graduated from the Arts and Architecture University with a BA in Painting (2006) and an MA in Restoration and Conservation of Cultural Heritage (2012), she moved to Italy in 2012 to study MFA at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna (2014).

Maryam Eivazi is best known for her lyrical use of colors and forms in creating abstract images and sculptures. She defines abstract painting as the "experience of freedom". Her work contains immersive, abstract scenes covered with organic forms, everyday objects, and fragmented human body parts. Eivazi incorporates geometrical shapes, which she describes as “abstract symbols”, whereby forms have been achieved by expressive brush strokes that are combined with pastel tones that cover her surfaces. For Eivazi, the process of painting is an experimental journey within the technical as well as her mystical world of image creation.
