Ali Motamedian(b.1986, Bojnourd, Iran) is a graduate of graphic design. Starting painting at a young age, he began with landscapes, but soon turned to more abstract and experimental approaches. His concern is on an experimental approach to achieving a desirable result. Technically, his focus in his works is on color and texture events and moments, and modernistic attitude, researching in his abstract paintings makes the atmosphere of his paintings, which he creates hidden and visible meanings through them. Motamedian recreates his works with a multifaceted but self-referenced expression and strong visual orientation that digests politics and philosophy and sometimes even ethnic myths. Ali Motamedian now lives in Karaj. He has had two solo shows, more than 50 group shows in Iran, the USA, and Europe, and also participated in many festivals and won many awards./// Painting gives us the great gift of teaching how to touch, observe and follow. lt is said that painting reveals the unseen. And despite its spiritual tone, this sentence appears earthly. The arts have always conquered the sky by the earth. What fuses my enthusiasm in painting with curiosity is the most earthly part of art which is the painting material. My interest in observation is as a scientists in this field. What are the capabilities of the material? How do the combinations I think of work? Eccentrically employing materials and even utilizing unfamiliar materials in painting is the destiny I am after. Nonfigurative tendency provides more freedom to watch the interactions of elements. And that is why my paintings more than geometry, abstract shapes or illusions of objects, lets the realities flow. Realities that are concealed from the eyes. They recount the transformation of the materials, their combination and their destiny at a particular time which is the painting time. Footprints and escapes create the atmosphere of the present paintings. Light but heavy things that represent long distances and tests. Ali Motamedian
