These works reflect a postmodern, even a post-cubist, three-dimensional visual style.
In his reliefs, Vaziri Moghaddam's vividly colored shapes, resembling bird-like, at times frightening forms, are crafted in wood and installed on a solid colored background. The same flying shapes that are mobile on the reliefs appear in his silkscreens and paintings almost bound within the frame.
