Maryam Hoseini
16.05 - 11.07.2026
Deborah Schamoni is pleased to announce the second solo exhibition of New York–based Iranian artist Maryam Hoseini at the gallery, as part of Various Others 2026.
Maryam Hoseini (born 1988, Tehran, Iran) creates spatial compositions in which fragmented bodies transform into abstract patterns and nonlinear visual structures through repetition and rhythm. Through painting, drawing, and installation, they explore the tension between figuration and dissolution. Their work reveals the subversive potential within catastrophe and reshapes their figures into new forms of intimacy. Informed by their identity as an Iranian living in exile in the US, their work addresses life in the diaspora, social ruptures, and the fragility of both private and public spaces.

How glass distorts, how glass warps, how glass obscures, how glass is used to construct in the service of modernity.
Nearly all of our existence, social life, work life, and private life is mediated through glass. And because you are reading this text via a glass surface, you’re already experiencing several layers of abstractions. PlayTime is a limited edition of ten vases, conceived in close collaboration with Deborah Schamoni. This presentation takes shape within the convivial and collective framework of Various Others, a format grounded in hospitality and dialogue.

Deborah Schamoni freut sich, im Rahmen von Various Others 2026 die zweite Einzelausstellung der in New York lebenden iranischen Künstlerin Maryam Hoseini in der Galerie anzukündigen.
Maryam Hoseini (*1988 in Teheran, Iran) erstellt räumliche Kompositionen, in denen fragmentierte Körper durch Wiederholung und Rhythmus in abstrakte Muster und nichtlineare Bildstrukturen übergehen. Mittels Malerei, Zeichnung und Installation thematisiert sie das Spannungsfeld zwischen Figuration und Auflösung. Dabei deckt sie die subversive Kraft innerhalb von Katastrophen auf und formiert ihre Figuren zu neuen Möglichkeiten der Intimität. Geprägt von ihrer Identität als im US-Exil lebende Iranerin, thematisiert sie das Leben in der Diaspora, soziale Bruchstellen und die Fragilität privater sowie öffentlicher Räume.
