Biography: Born in Tehran, Iran, Sia Aryai displayed an interest in art from early childhood. Finding himself in a stringent cultural environment, Aryai secretly sketched female figures from smuggled foreign magazines. In the mid 70's, Aryai left Iran for England where 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 of women through his own unique vision, approach, and style.
