THE ARTIST

Q&A with NIMA ARABI

WHAT art-making tool can't you live without?

“Soft charcoal pencil/stick is my favorite mark-making tool. It gives the contrast that I need and can become soft or harsh whenever it's needed as well! It's expressive and more organic, I feel!”

WHAT is the best & worst thing about a blind collaboration?

“There’s an excitement behind it! If I knew about them, I could see their practices and imagine the final product. But in blind collaboration, I just need to trust and wait! This can be a great social practice!”

WHAT does the word "beastly" bring to your mind?

“Weird, surprising, cooool, woooow, sh*****t! It's mainly a combination of awesomeness and awe! New engineering of organs! Maybe it's related to my background but I can relate to them. I can like them!”
