Description:
Hunger 4 is a visceral and emotionally charged composition. Woven from layers of distressed carpet, the piece depicts a tangle of distorted faces and hands—raw expressions of pain, urgency, and yearning. The fraying textures and ruptured patterns echo themes of loss, displacement, and unresolved collective trauma. Ghaseminejad's use of carpet—traditionally a symbol of heritage—transforms into a surface of rupture and resistance, pushing the boundaries of textile as narrative.

About the Artist:
Bijan Ghaseminejad is a multidisciplinary artist from the Middle East who combines his background in carpet design with a conceptual, sculptural approach. For over two decades, he has reimagined discarded carpets as living materials—cut, layered, and repurposed into bold contemporary works. His practice explores memory, identity, and transformation through the material language of textile.
