Iranian illustrator and senior concept artist Amir Zand has spent more than 15 years creating worlds across books, personal projects and AAA game development, creating over 75 book covers and contributing to the visual look of Star Wars Eclipse for six years. Alongside his commercial work, he continues to develop Anomaly, an ambitious personal universe that reflects his passion for storytelling through image-making.
Zand’s career began with a commission from an indie author who discovered his work on DeviantArt, a project that would unexpectedly open doors to high-profile opportunities including Mortal Engines and Warhammer 40,000. From there, he’s steadily sought to blend cinematic atmosphere and graphic design to spark original worlds, something that comes together in his own Dreamer series.
