n Tabriz, beneath the hustle and bustle of one of the
biggest cities in Iran, Farhad Khodayari sits behind
a computer, creating images of a man on the outside
looking in. As he plays with the lighting in his image, he
remembers his younger self—confused and made crazy
by his unusual visions and unrealistic way of regarding
the world. He smiles at this memory, having since come
to fully know himself and realize that his visions are gifts.
“My art is all about dreaming—visions and feelings. I love
to show my capacity for telling stories within the images; I have
many stories behind my images, some told and some left to
interpretation, and I love to share all of them with the world,”
reveals Khodayari.
