Hamed Dehqan (°1990, IR)
Between Tehran and Brussels
My practice moves across drawing and painting, installation, objects, spatial scenarios, and poetry. In my works, an unknown, enigmatic, and colorful world exists alongside strange characters that often emerge from simple, primordial shapes. These environments and figures become a way for me to explore the fragile, shifting relationship between fiction and reality.
