Arash Hanaei (b. 1978, Tehran) is a Paris-based artist whose work blends various media and digital technologies. After studying photography at the University of Tehran, he created Capital (2008), a series dissecting Tehran’s urban transformation in the post-war era. Since relocating to Paris in 2014, his practice has shifted from documentary photography to a speculative, intermedia approach using post-internet strategies in times of crisis. His work explores utopian ideals in experimental urbanism, creating dreamlike yet unsettling scenes. Hanaei has held solo exhibitions at Rencontres d’Arles 2022, Ab-Anbar Gallery, Ludlow38, the Goethe-Institut New York, and Yassi Foundation.
