Works by Ali Sabouki
Ali Sabouki, born in Shiraz (1985), currently lives and works in Tehran as an artist. Ali attended the University of Art and Architecture in Tehran to study Scenic Design. He has since worked across a variety of mediums in theatre, movies and visual arts. Over the last decade, his focus has increasingly gravitated towards photography, portraits in particular. His haunting portraiture explores identity and connectedness of the human spirit in isolation; taking stylistic cues from Old Masters while exploring the human condition in modern life.
