Hanif Bahari’s artistic path began in childhood, where drawing, especially cartoons, quickly became both a talent and an obsession. Through the 1990s he pursued formal training in academic drawing and oil painting, a foundation he later expanded while studying Industrial Design at Azad University’s Art and Architecture Department in Tehran. His first published cartoon appeared in a major Iranian newspaper in 2001, followed by two solo cartoon exhibitions and one group exhibition before he relocated to Sweden in 2012. In 2014 he presented his caricature work in Gothenburg, and between 2015 and 2017 he continued his studies in Sundsvall, completing a Master of Arts in the Design for All program at Mid Sweden University.
