Marjan Baniasadi (b.1993) is an Iranian contemporary visual artist currently based in Germany.
“To be an artist who resides in various locations simultaneously, for me Persian carpets are not only commodities but living objects that are capable of recording time, besides incorporating myths, tales and fantasies of multiple times. These rugs imbibe, delineate and convey narratives, complex and simple that are about life and death, about pain and pleasure, about kings and mortals – through every thread woven together. In my practice, I seek to combine, connect and investigate its different forms of expression and transform them into modes of my personal stories.”
