Shirin Rezaee, born in 1987 in Hamedan, Iran, is a photographer currently based in Tehran. She graduated in Visual Communication from Tehran Art University, shaping her artistic perspective around the subtleties of city life.
In her photographs, Shirin explores city corners, urban landscapes, and the interaction between people and their surroundings. She takes a modest approach to social interactions within her frames, capturing people in a way that reflects their existence without making them the focal point.
Her work is focused on the aftermath, highlighting traces left behind in urban spaces, writings on walls, changes in object configurations, and alterations in scenes. Her photographs evoke the essence of once-busy places, reminiscent of the lingering scent after someone has departed.
Her artistic process involves purposeful walking sessions, covering paths others have crossed, to remember and record the subtle imprints they left behind. Through her lens, She invites viewers to reflect on the transient nature of human presence and the enduring echoes of moments passed.
