HOSSEI is an Australian artist with Persian, Turkish and Russian ancestry. His multidisciplinary practice incorporates performance, sound, video and painting, with a particular interest in the human voice. HOSSEI’s practice deals with his heritage, fantasies and feelings. He adopts themes of secrecy, the unconscious, theatricality and mysticism to create surreal scenarios through real and imagined characters— most recently, his own mother has been the focal subject within his work.
