Biography
Afsaneh Modiramani was born in Tehran. She studied the crafts of Iran at the University of Fine Arts in Isfahan and has over 30 years of experience in textile design.
Modiramani views the process of weaving as a journey that connects the present to a distant past. She describes it as a ritual that blends machine-like precision with human touch. Using various fibres, both natural and man-made, including cotton, wood, silk, fabric scraps, and metal strings, she creates unique and improvisational artworks.
She has exhibited her work in Iran, France, Germany, and Italy. In 2015, she received the Artistic, Grade One (PhD) for textile designing and weaving from the Iran Cultural Heritage, Handicrafts, and Tourism Organization.
