Mohammad Chenari, born in Mashhad in 1357 SH, is an Iranian painter whose practice focuses on the city and everyday life. Streets, neighbourhoods, buildings and natural settings provide subjects for his paintings.
Painting on site among passers-by is a defining part of his process. Vivid colours and animated scenes translate direct observation into images of place, people and memory.
His subjects include the area around the Imam Reza shrine, Taghiabad Square, Doktora crossroads, Hafez Bridge and older and peripheral neighbourhoods of Mashhad. Encounters with people around his easel form part of the painting experience.
