Artwork Description

 about this mirror art

This mirror fine art is part of the collection 'A Persian Folktale' which expresses the artist's gratitude to his homeland and the people.

Each piece represents iconography and miniature vibes with a modern twist which refers to the Persian national epic, the Shahnameh. These stories are reimagined through reflections of paintings on mirrors and finished with restored antique frames.

about the artist

Safitown, the artistic alias of Amir Ali Safiari, is a self-taught mirror artist born in Tehran in 1978. He grew up in Nice, France, and moved to San Francisco at age 11. After studying Business Marketing at California State University Northridge, he pursued a successful career in advertising. At 40, he shifted focus to art, embracing his true passion.

His mirror artworks are entirely handmade, utilizing acid, bleach, and other chemicals to de-silver mirrors. He never replicates a piece, continually experimenting with techniques, media, cuts, and colors. 

In addition to his hand-etched, acid-treated mirror pieces, he works with print on canvas, painting, collages, resin, wood, and glass. His practice blends materials and narratives, with no two pieces ever alike. Drawing from graphic design and traditional techniques, he creates layered, reflective works and multimedia compositions.

His works are unique, one-of-a-kind editions, and can be commissioned or selected from existing designs. Shipping and on-site creation are available depending on size specifications.
