Image as an Image — When Inspiration Emerges from Calculation

Image as an Image is an intimate art documentary directed by Reza Yasini, featuring artist Arash Ahmadi. The film takes you deep inside the artist’s creative world—from his early figurative paintings to his fascination with geometric volumes, precise calculations, and bold color choices that define his unique visual language. Step into his studio to witness the process behind the works: influences from Malevich, Greenberg, Haraguchi, and Gerhard Richter, meticulous color experiments, and the use of tools like tape, rulers, and stencils to achieve flawless forms. This is a journey where art meets everyday life, and where inspiration can come from electronic circuit boards, physical laws, or even a small palette of colors.
