Press Release

Shirin Gallery TEHRAN is pleased to present the work of Danial Mollanorouzi,an upcoming, young Iranian artist. The solo exhibition, Strolling in Persian Rituals, features new paintings inspired by the flowing colors, forms, & textures of traditional, hand-woven carpets. Other works feature the vibrant turquoise colors and shades of classic Persian tiles. Expressing a clear love for abstract and impressionistic art, Mollanorouzi’s work on canvas and paper reveals considerable depth. The pieces represent the more emotional side of his background inspirations. What appears to be a blending of colors and lines is really a visual representation of the elements and colors unique to traditional Persian rituals.Mollanorouzi’s works, derived from his roots and culture, describe a familiar feeling of joy and cheerfulness in a way that is whimsical, yet subtle to the eyes:

 “My works are narrative of my childhood and growing upI am inspired by the beauty and culture of my homeland.”
