Drawings
Curated series, chronological bodies of work, and fine art collections in this medium by Milad Zeynali.
COLLECTION 2018-1397 AT SEYHOUN ART GALLERY
My last exhibition, which included these design works, was held this time at Seyhoun Gallery, Vozara. After that, due to the coronavirus pandemic and other circumstances over these years, as well as my own sensitivity and perfectionism regarding the way my work is presented, I have not held a solo exhibition until now—though I have been more productive than ever. As I say this, it is now the year 1405 (2026), and I am striving to hold a rich and impactful exhibition at the quality I have in mind.
GRANDFATHER | 2009
In 2009 (1388), I spent a great deal of time doing line drawings of my grandfather. I was 22 years old at the time, and many of the masters who saw these works were astonished. Years later, one of the veteran painters told me that he had recently gone to a nursing home and was drawing the elderly, and that my drawings kept coming to his mind. My grandfather passed away in 2009 (1388), and I worked on these drawings over the course of a year, a selection of which I have chosen and displayed here.

LINEAR DRAWINGS | 2026
In 2005 , when I briefly attended drawing classes with Vahik Hartounian, I became acquainted with this technique and spent a great deal of time on it; it is still one of my favorites. Back then, I often drew my grandfather using this technique, and to this day I have created a large number of drawings with it every year. I can say with certainty that this technique brought me to my own personal space — in other words, it connected me to my unconscious.
