Danyal Imani
Danyal is an Iranian visual artist currently based in Vancouver, British Columbia. He earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Simon Fraser University (SFU) and has showcased his work in various venues, including the Burnaby Art Gallery, SFU Audain Gallery, and Surrey Art Gallery. Notably, three of his paintings were chosen to adorn public art murals in Eihu Lane, Downtown Vancouver. Danyal’s paintings primarily serve as an exploration of colour and pattern making. Through his art, he conveys abstract aspects of everyday life, allowing patterns to interact and stir up memories while connecting with the subconscious. Imani’s paintings, in their material form, function as small archives, preserving significant moments from his life.
