Episode 2263 | Bahman Mohassess: Distorted Bodies and Mythical Beasts

Dela

In this episode, we dive into the work of Bahman Mohassess, a modern artist from Iran whose bizarre paintings and sculptures feature minotaurs and distorted bodies. We discuss why his figures tend to be fragmented, alone, and unsettleting, and how these elements convey certain concepts through his unique body of work. In addition, we explore how Mohassess mixed mythology with modernism in his art. Instead of seeing him as merely bizarre and disturbing, we try to understand what the discomfort of his art forces us to question about ourselves and our world.
