Who is Vian Sora?

Vian Sora is an Iraqi American artist. She has held exhibitions throughout Iraq, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, parts of Europe and the Middle East. She received her degree from al-Mansour University in Baghdad.

She has published a Turkish language book concerning her works which is titled Neher, Seher, Misafirat. The title was also the name of her art exhibition that was held in Topkapi Palace, Istanbul, Turkey.

Sora works primarily with oils, but utilizes mixed media and engraving techniques to create three-dimensional textures on canvas. The work is primarily expressionist and figurative, with contemporary abstract images used to convey moods and scenes from antiquity. Her works demonstrate the influences of the East and West on her painting and upon her existence.

Women of all cultures, of ancient and modern times, are a central theme in her work. She represents women as silent spiritualists and shows their journey as a constant struggle for survival.

She is currently living and working in the United States.
