Sorkhabi Mohammad

Об авторе

Mohammad Sorkhabi, known professionally as \"Sorkhe,\" is an Iranian fine art photographer born in 1985 in Mashhad, Iran.
He grew up surrounded by art. His mother collected paintings, his father kept a collection of old film cameras and somewhere between those two worlds he became drawn to Baroque and Romantic painting. That interest never really left.
His photographs move between classical painting and something more modern and psychological. He rarely starts with a fixed message — more often it begins with a feeling or an image in his head, and he works from there. The meaning stays open; he isn\'t trying to tell the viewer what to think.
A lot of his work circles around memory, time, consciousness, and the strange gap between presence and absence, often through images of the body suspended, held, or pushed toward its limits. It is often moody, a little gothic, and dreamlike in the way old and contemporary elements share the same frame.
Since 2015, his work has been recognized internationally — including first place at Tirgan (Toronto), second and third place at MIFA (Moscow), and recognition at the Siena International Photo Awards — with additional exhibitions in Italy, France, and the United States. In 2026, he was a selected artist at the RAK Art Festival in Ras Al Khaimah, UAE. He lives and works in Tehran, Iran.
