Kour Pour (b. 1987, Exeter, England) is a British-Iranian artist based in Los Angeles investigating his experience of living between cultures. Pour’s visually complex paintings, prints, sculptures and collages draw upon non-Western craft and decorative traditions in a meditation on global exchange, identity and migration. Persian rug motifs and patterns frequently populate the artist’s work in a nod to the displacement and transitions experienced by migrant communities throughout the western world. The artist received his BFA from Otis College of Art and Design. Recent exhibitions include New Homes, New Places at Gallery 1957 (London, UK); Familiar Spirits at Kavi Gupta (Chicago, IL); Wild Garden at Sargent’s Daughters (New York, NY); and A Boundless Drop to a Boundless Ocean at the Orlando Museum of Art (Orlando, FL) among others. The artist’s work has been featured in a number of publications including the Financial Times, Cultured, LA Weekly, and Hyperallergic among others.
