Vian Sora, Iraqi-born artist
About Vian Sora:
Vian Sora was born in Iraq and has recently relocated to Louisville, KY with her husband. Vian received a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science in Baghdad, Iraq and was also a member of the Iraqi Artists Fine Art Society. She has exhibited internationally in Iraq, London, Italy, Germany and France. Her most recent exhibitions have been in Dubai and the Green Building in Louisville, KY.
Growing up in a vibrant art community, Vian was exposed to archaeology, music, literature, and art at a young age. Her paintings are hugely character-driven with women serving as a central theme. Drawing from Middle Eastern culture and traditions, she attempts to connect the viewer on a spiritual level. Vivid colors, shadows and symbols are key factors contributing to the unique process Vian uses in creating her paintings.
