Biography

Originally from Mexico City, she attributes her way of seeing the world around her to moving between different countries, languages, and cultures throughout her life. Equally fluent in her artistic practice, Agahnia works in a variety of media: printmaking, painting, photography, and encaustic. She focuses on creating hybrid combinations of the various materials, giving her art unique and unexpected qualities. Agahnia’s work in graphic design and photography is evident in her paintings. Incorporating the structure of graphic design and photography in contrast to the freedom of abstraction, her work examines the relationship between the two. This exploration of balance and harmony is the cornerstone of the artist’s studio practice. Fresh and exciting, Agahnia’s art is rich in layers of color, shapes, and texture. From her constant exploration of new materials to her unusual juxtapositions of structure and abstraction, Agahnia’s work is both original and compelling. Her work has been commissioned by several commercial developments including Rancho Valencia Resort in California and First Service Residential in New York
