Mahnaz is a painter and AI-collaborative artist with a background in architecture. Her ethereal figurative works explore identity, self-discovery, and transformation through luminous, metallic-infused compositions that blend classical painting techniques with AI.
Born to immigrant parents, her work is shaped by experiences of migration, belonging, social pressure, and the search for freedom, equality, and inner truth. Working across painting, digital art, and AI art, she uses the human figure as a symbolic space where memory, vulnerability, resistance, and transformation meet.
Since entering the NFT space in 2021, Mahnaz has developed an evolving body of work that began with human rights and humanitarian themes, later expanding into body image, the female experience, and digital identity through collections such as Body Image and Felora. Since 2023, her AI-collaborative practice has focused more deeply on self-discovery, using AI as a mirror to explore self-image, visibility, authorship, and the fragmented self.
Her SuperRare collection 1/1SELF continues this personal investigation, presenting the self as singular, unrepeatable, and always in transformation.
