    Born in Tehran, Iran, Aryai displayed an interest in art from early childhood.

Finding himself in a stringent cultural environment. In the mid 70's, Aryai left 

Iran for England where he received his formal education and was free to 

pursue his artistic passions. Later he ventured on to the United States where

in the mid 80's he immersed himself in the medium of photography. This gave

him the perfect means and medium to capture the essence and the beauty 

through his own unique vision, approach, and style.

Aryai is also credited with producing artistic product renderings for such major 

companies as Nike, Kraft, Blue Cross and Adidas, Samsung. His images 

have also appeared as key set decorations in major motion pictures.

Aryai's images speak universally and have garnered both national and

international acclaim. His art works have shown in galleries and museums

throughout the United States and Europe.

    opic of my works is languor of daily images.

Languor means an emotion coming from a moment when we can’t find any meaning anymore on the course of finding meaning about our surroundings.
