Bio
My name is Aran (Nima Raadparsa), and I was born in Tehran in 1988. As an accomplished Iranian photographer and visual storyteller, I have extensive experience working for several national news agencies. after that Dark period, I turned to an independent Visual artist step by step.
After a while, my work has been recognized at various international artistic events, highlighting my commitment to exploring personal narratives, issues related to race, and community matters. I bring a unique perspective to my craft and am dedicated to making a meaningful impact through my photography.
ARTIST STATEMENT
As a self-taught photographer, I strive to showcase my unique perspective using unconventional storytelling methods. My approach leans heavily on my creativity, as I constantly seek new ways to convey my ideas and narratives through innovative forms and techniques.
As an international visual artist, I have social and humanitarian concerns. I feel I have to use the language of art to explore and express my thoughts in the social sphere, as I have done before. Even evil should be portrayed in an impactful way, and what better medium than art to achieve that?
