In 1991, I began to paint in gouache over some old
letters which were dusting away in the back of old cupboards and
forgotten for many years. I used the pattern of the words and tried
to bring them to life.
Painter and interior designer Rafi was born in
Tehran. From an early age he was inspired by nature and its glory.
At age sixteen he went to England to continue his studies. He
graduated in interior design from Rochester College of Art in
Kent and London College of Furniture. Rafi returned to Iran and
began teaching interior design. He later became the director
of the Kerman Museum of Modern Art. These are selections from
his web site: h-rafi.com.
