We love the blend of humour, cultural references and immediacy that unites Babak’s work. After graduating from Central St Martins, Babak has continued to share his inner monologue through his art. Notable works include a painting of a Barclays Card auctioned in lieu of debt he owed and a set of twigs from a neighbourhood. Babak aspires to “get to a point where walking about Sainsburys would be (his) art,” pushing the boundaries of creativity and re-defining the concept of ‘art’ itself. We've been working with Babak Ganjei since 2020.
We love the blend of humour, cultural references and immediacy that unites Babak’s work. His witty typography works are cheeky yet charming; it's hard not to crack a smile when taking in Babak's work. The unpredictability of his works keep us on the edge of our seats. Babak refuses to comply to any standard of normalcy, embracing the absurd and creating artwork that is designed to surprise and spark joy.
