What does Starry Night mean to you? - Alireza

Alireza Karimi Moghaddam contributed a lot to our instagram account @amazingstarrynights with his amazing Starry Night cartoons. We asked him these questions:

What does Starry Night mean to you?

Alireza: For me, Starry Night is a perfect symbol of imagination and technique. Imagination means the whole technique at the highest level of speech. I think an artist would like to have a combination of these two elements in presenting a work of art, and Van Gogh is the artist who has done it in the best possible way. Of course, along with these two elements, we should not ignore love.

Which other Van Gogh paintings do you admire?

Alireza: In general, I love Van Gogh's paintings in Arles and St. Remy. All of these paintings are masterpieces. In these works, I see a combination of love and madness in painting.

How was it to create your Amazing Starry Night?

Aliraza: I'm imitating Van Gogh. At this point, I feel like I'm talking to Van Gogh himself. He is by my side and I feel his presence. This painting is so full of mystery that if I copy it a thousand times, I won't get tired of it. I learn new things from it every time. Color recognition, movement, composition, light, and most importantly love.
