Biography

Simin Keramati was born in 1970 in Tehran, Iran.[5][6] She attended Islamic Azad University, where she received a B.A. degree (1995) in English;[7] and the Tehran University of Art, where she received a M.A. degree (1996) in painting.[5][6] She moved to Toronto in 2013,[5] where she attended George Brown College.

Keramati's art work focuses on socio-political topics, identity, and the injustices facing women in Iran.[1][2] Some of her art contemporaries include Shirin Neshat, Shadi Ghadirian, and Newsha Tavakolian.[1][8]
