Artist
Lives in Miami, Florida
Jason Seife’s work references old Persian carpets, an art form that in modern times is often taken for granted. Carpets were a large part of his childhood growing up with immigrant parents of Middle Eastern descent. Jason recreates these old weavings by tediously painting them on canvas in colours and mediums that were not normally used originally. The creation of these works is both a therapeutic and a spiritual process, the artist channelling his obsession with detail into the intricate geometry and compositions of the carpets.
