Based in Boston, Massachusetts, Giti Ganjei is a visual artist whose artwork is inspired by intuition, a diverse cultural background, and a wealth of life experiences. Employing simple shapes, vibrant colors, metaphors and elements of nature in her creative process, she creates conceptual pieces that aim to evoke emotions and establish a deep connection with her audience.
“Many of my paintings underscore the repercussions of discrimination, limited rights, and entrenched cultural beliefs imposed on women. These constraints aim to keep them obedient, compromising their dignity and sovereignty.”
As an artist, my socially sensitive inner vision propels my commitment to raise awareness through conceptual paintings. Utilizing metaphors, the human body, and nature, my objective, particularly evident in my tree painting collection, is to spark public awareness and initiate conversations about prevalent global issues.
These issues, whether from the past or present, near or far, have a profound impact on our lives. Having experienced ten years of war with Iraq before immigrating to the US, the historical Holocaust, and the ongoing Ukrainian war deeply resonate with me due to their compromising effects on human rights and dignity.
