Solmaz Farhang is an interdisciplinary artist based in London. She is a graduate of MA Art and Science from the University of Applied Arts Vienna, cofounder of the art and design collective Transformation Agency for Agency (DTAFA) and an Associate Lecturer at the University of the Arts London.

Solmaz’s work spans and expands upon different disciplines including photography, video art, assemblage, drawing and multimedia installations. Central to Solmaz artistic practice is an exploration of storytelling and speculative thinking, through which she engages with themes of identity, ecology and the relationship between human and nature.

Solmaz’s innovative approach leads her into unfamiliar environments, such as ecology and research labs, where she employs unconventional tools and materials along with found objects to create fresh, insightful perspectives. Through this lens, she leverages the concept of unknowing as an empowering force, transforming the absence of specific expertise into an opportunity for creative explorations and creation of new forms of knowledge.

Solmaz Farhang has exhibited her work in venues such as Forum Stadtpark Graz (AT), Natural History Museum of Vienna (AT), National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BA), Ars Electronica, Linz (AT), Museum Quartier Vienna (AT), Kunsthalle Exnergasse (AT), Angewandte Interdiciplinary Lab (AT), Etiuda & Anima Festival (PL) and European Capital of Culture in Novi Sad Serbia (RS).
