Hossein Fardinfard (born in Iran in 1985) is an Amsterdam-based visual storyteller working across photography and videography.
Hossein’s art career began with street photography. A web developer at the time, his exchanges with street photography subjects brought him into more meaningful dialogue with people he passed by every day. This phase of his career was inspired by the drive to experiment and explore questions of identity and social issues.
Transitioning over time, his artistic journey has culminated in a specialization in documentary and, especially, environmental portraiture. His evocative portraitures testify to his dedication to uplifting those around him, drawing inspiration from the rich tapestry of human stories surrounding him.
Long intrigued by the contours of the Earth, Hossein holds a B.S. in Cartography, a B.A. in Information Technology, and an M.A. in Geomorphology. Feeling increasingly drawn to examine the human spirit, he studied at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague, finishing his B.A. in Photography in 2022.
