Shirin Town is a London-based surrealist photographer. Born in Sydney to an English father and Iranian mother, she lived in Sydney, Tehran, London, and Perth all before commencing school. This nomadic, cross-cultural upbringing shapes her work - grounding her unique imagery in the expression of memory and emotions.

Shirin works intuitively to build scenes from multiple elements she has photographed, often including self-portraiture. These photographs are then intricately blended together to create dream-like worlds. Her work sits between the familiar and the other, using the language of the subconscious to examine emotion and how we transform. Through this process, she makes the deeply personal resonate as a human experience that is universally shared.
