Arghavan Khosravi threads cultural commentary through Surrealist beauty in The Earring.

The assemblage print edition makes use of recurring motifs seen throughout the artist’s two and three-dimensional practice: ropes, obscured facial features, ball and chains, all framed within an overriding beauty and delicately painted details. Khosravi spins influences from Persian miniatures, textiles, Greco-Roman figures, merging to reflect restrictions experienced by the artist in Iran, where she was born.

Arghavan Khosravi2 collaborationsArghavan Khosravi draws from her own life to depict the fragmentation of diasporic cultural identity. These experiences manifest in segmented, layered canvases which often incorporate 3D objects like earbuds and chains. Her work is rich with symbolic motifs such as red strings and obscured facial features that reflect cultural restrictions imposed on the artist while living in Iran. However, Khosravi is keen to do so subtly – conveying a sense of claustrophobia rather than outright violence. Throughout her oeuvre, Khosravi advocates human rights while refusing to abide by Western stereotypes of repressed Iranian women – instead anchoring her work to the reality of her own memory.
