String Artist

Hanieh Nasrabadi

London

" I studied my bachelor degree in Architecture, After graduating from university, I started working in Interior Design and Construction. Finally found my passion in painting and eventually string art from 2018 to this day. By combining Thread and Nail I have been able to express desires, emotions, and life experience in my art. Creativity and art had always been a part of my life. Using thread and nails to shapes I want to encourage the viewer to allow the work to recall to complexity, texture, geometric and mathematics. Recently, my left hand had a traumatic accident in which all the tendons of my hand were torn and I could shake my hand with great difficulty and pain, even after several surgeries. This became an excuse for me to become more familiar with the movement mechanism of the tendons. Upon further study, I realized the close connection between them and the strings, and I saw that the pain that was inflicted on me could be turned into art through these strings, and it is also a kind of healing. My work is a pure experience of my being, my thoughts, ideas, feelings, memories, experience, past and future. I have found that string art conveys these feelings to my audience that each texture represents a path in life."
