Pejman Ebadi
was born in Tehran, Iran 1982, at the height of the
Iran-Iraq war. At the age of two, his family fled the war stricken
homeland to find refuge in France. At only four years old, Pejman’s
father discovered his precocious gift for painting and encouraged
him to express himself freely without any particular guidance.
Without formal art education, the young Pejman taught himself by
studying works of major 20th century artists. His first
exhibition was when he was six years old and since 1990, he has held
more than fifty solo exhibitions throughout North America and
Europe. Pejman now lives and works in Nice.
Pejman is an improvisational artist, working straight onto his
canvases without planning what the finished piece will be. The blank
page compels him to create form and colour, drawing them out of
instinct. With each stab in the dark, the artist mesmerises us with
the unseen things that lurk below the surface. Spanning over two
decades, the artist’s wildly diverse style encompasses scrawling
angry creatures, sun-striped horizons, withered swastikas and voodoo
symbols. The gods and goddesses of mythology battle out their wars
on canvas; their bad tempered dragons and slack-jawed totems menace
the bright Aztec colours. Bringing his compositions to life with
fierce graffiti, this young Picasso-Basquiat is surely a force to be
reckoned with.
