My name is Isa Dahan, I am a multidisciplinary artist based in Amsterdam, with a core practice rooted in visual design. I graduated from Gerrit Rietveld Academie, graphic design department, where I also did an exchange to Tama Art University in Tokyo for textile design. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I work within a visual world that is guided by shape, form and texture. This results in a (un)conscious guideline that I follow during any process, whether it is for an applied work or self initiated, resulting in a clear visual language throughout. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this guideline I also document and collect, not just through imagery but also physically, anything and everything that I find that fits within it. This archive of material allows me to continuously reference back to my previous works but also random objects, other art, even architecture, fashion design or family artifacts etc. As long as it fits within my world, which is ever growing, I collect it, reference it, document it, translate it. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

I see my way of working as an ongoing attempt to create a non-traditional map, one that brings together my thoughts, memories, friends, and family. This map holds my life, my love for certain colors, shapes, and textures, my fascination with textiles, and my instinct to collect. By sharing this map, I hope to create a space for connection, curiosity, and shared imagination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I look to explore the complexity of the world around us, its beauty and its ugliness. I search for ideas and ways of translating the known into the unknown.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To keep a better overview of my research\/archive I organise, select, arrange, document & publish most of my imagery (found or made) on my Instagram account @isadahan<\/a>. I view this page as my personal magazine, a peek inside my brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
