Neda Taiyebi is a visual artist working across painting, ceramic sculpture, and material-driven processes. Her research-based practice examines history, mythology, and the ways knowledge is formed, fractured, and sustained.
Central to her work is an investigation of transformation, extinction, and the boundary between imagination and reality. Taiyebi often creates hybrid forms inspired by extinct species, where material experimentation functions as a way of thinking, allowing form to emerge through making.
Her practice moves fluidly between painting and sculptural processes, emphasizing the connection between historical materials, anatomical imagination, and storytelling. Earlier site-specific works in Afghanistan (2015–2017) used painting and spatial intervention to document lived environments, creating a dialogue between memory, space, and material.
Across mediums, Taiyebi’s work sustains a dialogue between the historical weight of materials and the fluidity of story, exploring the intersections of sculpture, ceramics, and visual research.
