Razieh Sedighian, Untitled II, 2008, Rollerball pen on paper, 32.5 x 47.5 cm. 12 3/4 x 18 3/4 in.
Razieh Sedighian (b. 1986 Tehran) received her master’s degree in painting from Tehran University of Art and Architecture. Her work is the masterful manipulation of dots and lines. Her rollerball pen drawings contain an ambiguity, transcending time and place. Using a limited palette of white, blue, and black, her landscape depictions subtly allude to the fragility of our natural world. It’s not precisely clear if the dots and lines in Sedighian works are concentrated or disintegrated, strong or fragile. They are meditations on notions of existence and absence and the beginning and end of the world.
Sedighian has held two solo shows and participated in several group shows inside and outside of Iran. She also participated in Art 14 London Art Fair through Austin Desmond Fine Art in 2014. Razieh Sedighian was selected for The Fljotstunga Residency in Iceland in 2015 and for Vermont Art Studio Center in 2016.
