Biography:

 

Mona Ahmadi is a painter, visual artist, and art educator whose work explores mood, perception, rhythm, and visual communication through color, form, texture, and layered space. Her paintings move between structure and emotion, creating atmospheric environments where composition becomes a language of feeling.

She studied painting and drawing at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Firenze in Florence, Italy, where she completed her studies in Visual Arts and New Expressive Languages. Her work has been shown in exhibitions and art fairs across the Middle East, Europe, and the United States, and has received international recognition.

Alongside her studio practice, Ahmadi has taught drawing, painting, and foundations of two- and three-dimensional design for more than two decades. Her teaching focuses on observation, visual thinking, composition, and the relationship between technical practice and personal expression.
