Mehrdad Aghadadashi ( b. 2000, Yazd, Iran) is a photographer in pursuit of capturing the “miraculous moment of presence. ” In his work, he constantly strives to uncover the magical within the fabric of everyday reality and the external world. Over time, he has come to realize that this magic can be created with the slightest manipulation of external reality. By infusing his own mental magic—not in a collage-like manner but in perfect harmony with the objective world—he blurs the boundary between reality and imagination.
In each frame, he creates a unique world that invites the viewer into a realm beyond what meets the eye.
