Asal Peirovi’s practice explores the ambiguities of myth and imagination. In her unstretched paintings, she interlaces elements of nature and architecture derived from her own personal memories and lived experiences. Her fragmented perspectives and layered forms—including mountains, bridges, vegetation, and abandoned structures—allude to the tradition of Persian miniature paintings and present simultaneous narratives that poetically unfold across both time and space.

Asal Peirovi (b.1985, Sari, Mazandaran, Iran) lives and works in Tehran, Iran. In 2009, she received her BA in Painting from Shahed University and in 2014, she received her MA in Painting from the University of Art in Tehran. She has had solo exhibitions at STANDARD (OSLO), Oslo; Chapter NY, New York; Dastan’s Basement, Tehran; and Shirin Art Gallery, Tehran. Her work has been included in group exhibitions at Yavuz Gallery, Redfern, AUS; STANDARD (OSLO), Oslo; Assar Art Gallery, Tehran; The Edinburgh Festival, Edinburgh; among others.
