Mehran Elminia : Painting

11 Jun-15 Jul 2014

Overview

Mehran Elminia (MEM) is a painter in the purest sense of the word. Capable of working almost 24 hours without a break, he strives to reach a state of total oneness with the painting where nothing is premeditated and everything is consumed in a seamless continuum of successive moments. In fact, the energy and visceral quality of Elminia’s compositions can be directly related to this approach. His works, with their great complexity, never appear as the fruit of a purely spontaneous working method on the contrary they have a classically considered coherence.
