Antonean Diaz is a multidisciplinary artist of Belizean and Persian heritage, working across painting, sculpture and performance.
Born in the United States and raised in Iran, she now lives and works in Paris, FR, where she is pursuing her studies at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts de Paris.
Her work blends classical painting techniques with avant-garde sensibilities. Through surreal and symbolic imagery, she explores personal history, cultural duality, and dream-like states.
Her sculpture and performance pieces carry these themes into physical space, touching on myth, migration, identity.
Antonean’s work holds strong contrasts such as beauty and violence, order and chaos, creating pieces meant to stir emotion and spark reflection often leaving viewers with a sense of unease that leads to deeper thoughts.
