Babak Ganjei Biography

Babak Ganjei

Babak Ganjei is a London-based visual artist, poet, comic book writer and radio host, who captured the minds of the world when his irreverent ‘Film Idea’ series went viral, with such titles as ‘Chicken Nugget City’, ‘Kung-Fu Jesus’ and ‘Jurassic Shop’.

Inspired by the comedy and music of the 1990s, Ganjei is prolific in his output, creating art that’s wildly unpredictable and laugh-out-loud funny. Speaking of his work, Ganjei states: “The work doesn’t take itself seriously, but I take nonsense very seriously.”

Since graduating with a BA in Fine Art from Central St Martins College, Ganjei has written multiple comics, turned books by Donald Trump, Nigel Farage and Jeremy Clarkson into works of blackout poetry, and tried to sell a painting of his credit card back to Barclays to pay off his debt.
