Benyamin Zolfaghari

Iranian painter born in 1986, based in Rome. He trained in Photography at the University of Tehran and in Sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome. His work combines figuration and abstraction: inner landscapes and the human figure emerge through graphic marks that condense memory and visual writing. He has held solo exhibitions such as The Wander at Curva Pura (Rome, 2021), where he presented small oil works on paper characterized by rapid execution and narrative symbolism. His practice reflects the c ultural cross-pollination between Persian aesthetics and Western visions, questioning personal mythology through mark -making and abstraction.
