Mally Khorasantchi (Germany, USA)
Mally Khorasantchi lives and works in the USA. She is famous for creating pictures that are linked to “nature and its mysteries” and the “universal struggle to survive and endure,” phenomena that she identifies as constant sources of artistic inspiration.
Khorasantchi’s pictures begin with organic and biological objects, including “bananas, mangroves and stingrays, earth, water and sky” which she transforms into fantastical, expressive images, often through the symbolic use of color.
Khorasantchi also represents the patterns of nature, including the repeating hexagonal shapes of beehives and honeycombs.
