Pooneh Oshidari (b. 1984, Tehran) earned her BFA in Graphic Design (2006) and MFA in Illustration (2010) from Tehran University of Art. While primarily working in painting, drawing, and printmaking, she also experiments with organic materials like earth, water, and plants, as well as time-based media. Time as both a theme and method shapes her work, which draws on ancient Persian myths to address contemporary issues, including environmental destruction, motherhood, and women’s concerns. Oshidari has held twelve solo exhibitions in Tehran, Paris, Los Angeles, and Kuwait and participated in over ninety group shows, residencies, and art fairs worldwide. She is represented by Bavan Gallery, Tehran.
