Based in Los Angeles, artist Kour Pour’s creative processes, source material and painting techniques stem from a wide range of cultures and histories. His experience as an immigrant and biography are the foundation of his work– Pour is of British and Iranian descent and grew up in a mixed-race household– but the artist is also newly American, having been granted citizenship during the pandemic. These cultural threads inform Pour's work and add to a wide range of visual languages, ranging from Islamic patterning to Japanese woodblock prints and Korean Minhwa folk art, that infuse his paintings and sculptures.
