Haleh Redjaian

Haleh Redjaian (born 1971, Frankfurt am Main, Germany) lives and works in Berlin. Her practice operates at the intersection of drawing, painting, sculpture, and installation, examining the formal potential of line, grid, and geometric structure. Through rigorous visual systems—patterns, repetitions, shifts, and interruptions—Redjaian explores the tension between order and variation, precision and gesture, producing compositions that subtly destabilize spatial perception. Engaging with traditions of Concrete Art, Minimalism, and contemporary abstraction, she incorporates materials such as thread, tape, paper, and architectural elements. Sewn, layered, and tensioned lines generate vibrating surfaces in which the grid becomes organic, unstable, and responsive to context. Architecture functions not merely as support but as an active compositional element within her site-responsive installations. Her solo exhibitions include Kunsthaus Dahlem (Berlin), Kunstverein Bregenz, Museum für Konkrete Kunst Ingolstadt, Gallery Isabelle van den Eynde (Dubai), Krobath Wien (Vienna), and Valerie Traan (Antwerp), among others. She received the Stiftung Kunstfonds work grant (2019) and the Berlin Senate research grant (2015).
