Oliver Farshi is a British-Persian photographer based in New York. His work features people in moments of intense connection and disconnection.
Oliver’s photography has appeared in The New York Times, The New Republic, Forbes, The LA Times, The Boston Globe, and New York Magazine amongst others. His work has been exhibited in New York at the International Center Of Photography, Photoville, Baxter St, and at Visa Pour l’Image. He is a graduate of the International Center of Photography’s Documentary Practice & Visual Journalism program and winner of College Photographer Of The Year’s 2024 Gold Award for Best Documentary Project.
In his photographic practice, Oliver moves in otherwise unseen spaces, documenting the deeply personal. This can be seen in A Place To Die, which follows his time at a house terminally ill people visit to take a life-ending medication, and The One Who Got Away, which connects each person portrayed through the loss of a loved one in their life.
Ultimately Oliver's photographs reveal moments of vulnerability that are familiar yet rarely seen.
