Afshin Pirhashemi's paintings explore the complexities of life in today's Iran through his unique combination of carefully controlled photo-realistic depictions of Iranian figures and gothic fantasy. The almost exclusive use of black and white seen in his earlier paintings, has since been tempered with restrained use of colour.
