Kour Pour was born in 1987 and is a British artist living in Los Angeles. He is part Iranian descent and the work he is most famous for is carpets that he paints.
He spends months researching and working to set up the rug (as the canvas) for each piece. He then will prime the rug with gesso using a broomstick, to give the appearance of a worn rug. Then he will silkscreen an image of the rug, then he paints in the details. Which he then goes pack after and erases and wear away some of the painted parts. Then finally he will repaint these areas again and the piece is finished.
