Ali Zare is an Iranian-Austrian visual artist. He pursued his studies at the Faculty of Art and Architecture, earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a focus on Painting in Yazd, Iran.

In the realm of artistic expression, the human body has always been a profound subject, serving as a canvas for exploring the depths of emotions, identities, and experiences. In this captivating exhibition, we delve into the realms of body transfiguration and the boundless concept of freedom. Each stroke of paint on the canvas, each brush of color, is an invitation to embark on a journey of transformation, where the physical form becomes a vessel for profound change. Through the interplay of light and shadow, texture and form, these artworks capture the essence of metamorphosis, allowing the human body to transcend its limitations and embrace newfound liberation.
