Farzaneh Maleki Dizaji is a visual artist and cultural researcher whose practice operates at the intersection of painting, anthropology, and collective memory. With over twenty-five years of sustained practice, her work is informed by long-term research into material culture, folk traditions, and embodied human experience.

Her paintings engage with questions of identity, ritual, and place through restrained visual language and layered material processes. Moving beyond representation, her work treats painting as a site of encounter—where surface, memory, and cultural trace converge.

Alongside her studio practice, Maleki Dizaji has an extensive background in research and writing on art, ethnography, and the relationship between culture and economy. This scholarly engagement informs her visual work, grounding it in rigorous inquiry and contextual depth.
