Sepand Danesh
Sepand Danesh (b. 1984, Tehran) is an Iranian contemporary artist based in Paris who explores identity, transformation, and the paradoxes of contemporary existence in our hyperconnected age. Employing Euclidean geometry, Danesh creates large scale compositions through painted cube shapes that generate pixelated forms, referencing our digital landscape whilst interrogating the psychological territories of displacement and belonging. Danesh's practice explores 'the dynamic of the Hub', examining how ideas burst forth and circulate in our interconnected world. The metaphorical Hub represents confinement, whether physical, cultural, linguistic, or existential to represent escape and transformation. Danesh's large scale canvases and no visible interior confinement offer a cognitive dialect due to the scale of the trompe l’œil compositions, inviting viewers to physically confront the psychological and existential states he investigates.
