About Her:

Pardis Tabasinejad is a Vancouver-based painter and educator, originally from Iran. Her figurative work explores the intersection of Qajar-era Persian motifs and contemporary painting, weaving together memory, heritage, and the body.
Through layered surfaces and recurring symbols, she reimagines Qajar aesthetics in a new visual language. She is also the co-founder of Family Art House, an art space in North Vancouver that she runs with her parents, where she teaches painting and invites other Iranian artists to share their practices and lead art classes and workshops.
