KIM KHERADMANDI

Berlin, Germany

Kim Kheradmandi is a British Iranian artist and graphic designer, born in Paris, raised in Ipswich, England, and currently based in Berlin, specializes in digital design, painting, collage and illustration as well as short poetry and typography. His art often blurs the line between surface aesthetics and introspective/external thought as to him it is a physical manifestation of consumption and filter, love, sadness, happiness, contemplation and ultimately, an outlet to document a narrative which can sometimes feel irrelevant. His work consists of everyday reality and mundanity, imagination, abstract emotions, personal perspective and external media.

- How would you describe the emotions that your art aims the observer to feel?

My art aims to evoke a spectrum of emotions, from introspection and nostalgia to joy and optimism. I suppose my work has a slightly sombre feeling at first sight, due to a relatively dark colour palette, but in truth, this is because I find the nighttime more inspirational. The quiet and the softness it brings to the world make me feel more at peace.
