Dzanar Abbas-Zade Azerbeidzjan, b. 1987

Dzanar Abbas-Zade is a Dutch contemporary artist, art director and visual designer, known for his groundbreaking combination of digital art, sculpture and visual storytelling. Born in Baku and raised in the Netherlands, he developed a strong creative foundation from an early age within an artistic family, with a father who was a visual artist and a mother who was an architect.

With over 19 years’ experience, Dzanar has developed into a multidisciplinary creator working at the intersection of art, technology and culture. He gained international recognition as a visual designer for major names in the music industry, including G-Eazy, Akon, Chris Brown and Ed Sheeran, and played a key role in shaping DJ Sam Feldt’s visual identity.

His work is characterised by a powerful, recognisable style in which futurism, nostalgia and emotion converge. Through 3D design, high-end renders and physical art objects, he creates worlds in which reality and fantasy merge. His use of bold colours – particularly his iconic pink elements – ensures immediate visual impact and a lasting impression.

Dzanar has exhibited his work internationally at leading venues such as Art Miami, the NXT Museum, the SCOPE Art Show and on the iconic screens of Times Square in New York. These exhibitions underline his position as a new-generation artist who brings together digital and physical art on a global scale.

His work is deeply personal and rooted in themes such as childhood memories, freedom, ambition and self-reflection. He translates these themes into visual worlds that inspire the viewer to believe in possibilities once more and to embrace their own potential.

Today, Dzanar Abbas-Zade continues to develop an internationally recognisable artistic signature, with a strong focus on experience, innovation and cultural impact—with the aim of creating not just art, but entire worlds that move people and leave a lasting impression.
