Reza Lavassani is known for his oil paintings and sculptures. He is also known for his use of traditional methods of art making, namely oil paint on canvas for his paintings and techniques of papier-mâché for his sculptures. His works are also his moral strongholds when it comes to him celebrating the cycle of life, a notion that not only ideologically is very precious to him but one that also defines his chosen method in creating art to a great extent. His dedication to use recycled paper as his main tool, is derived from this belief.
Lavassani has held several solo exhibitions in Iran and has been part of numerous national and international exhibitions and art fairs. He has been the recipient of several awards including UNESCO’s Noma Concourse in 2007 .
