One of the most famous Iranian artists on the international art scene. Derakshani's works have been exhibited in leading museums and galleries in England, Italy, France, Switzerland, the United States and other countries. In addition to painting, he has also experimented with performance, combining music and visual arts. His work covers various art forms - music, graphic design, book illustration, animation, calligraphy, traditional Eastern and Western classical fine art. However, it was contemporary painting that brought him true freedom and recognition. The use of technically complex methods, experimentalism and intellectual work on his paintings allowed him to create a meditative space where he gains absolute freedom of expression. His works are distinguished by their diversity and originality, as well as a bold exploration of form and style, in which tradition harmoniously combines with a modern artistic spirit. In addition to painting, Derakshani is a vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, composer and performance artist. He does not limit his musical activity to concerts, but combines sound and visual art. Music accompanies his personal exhibitions, turning them into performative performances reminiscent of painting with sounds.
