Amin Yousefi

RPS Award for Achievement in the Art of Photography (under 30yrs) 2024 in recognition of a notable personal achievement in the art of photography.

Amin Yousefi was born in 1996 in Abadan, Iran, and holds a Master’s degree in Documentary Photography from the University of Westminster. He is a London-based writer, researcher, and image-based artist. Amin’s primary concern lies in the implications of the archive, exploring violence against protests in the Middle East enacted and how the act of photography can conceptually mirror the structures of these relationships.

Yousefi's work has been featured in several exhibitions and awards. He was named a 2024 Foam Talent Award winner. His project Eyes Dazzle as They Search for the Truth was a finalist in the 2022 Carte Blanche Awards at Paris Photo and was later exhibited with Ag Galerie at the 2023 Unseen Art Fair in Amsterdam. His work has also been seen in Festivals in Belfast, Athens, and Kranj. He has participated in the 2024 Circulation(s) festival at Centquatre-Paris and the Back to the Future exhibition at Peckham 24.

Yousefi has completed several commissions, including Ruderal Acts, Gardening Beyond the Wall, which was presented as part of the HerMAP Art Project, in Brussels. In 2019, he was recognized as an Ag Talent for his project Life, Death, and Other Similar Things, which was exhibited in a solo show at the Ag Galerie.
