Persian Poet is a first-generation multidisciplinary artist and writer who grew up in the Frank Lloyd Wright suburbs of Chicago to Iranian parents who built their world through design, fashion, and textiles. Art, language and aesthetic intentionality have surrounded her from the beginning and have helped Persian Poet shape an artistic practice grounded in presence and emotional architecture.
Now based in New York City, she transforms language and identity into what she calls emotional graffiti, language activated in public space creating communal ritual. Her work began as anonymous poetry on city sidewalks and has since evolved into a living archive: one that moves between streets, skin, galleries, and text-based objects. Since launching in 2020, her work has appeared across cities including Paris, Milan, Mexico City, Spain, and Dubai.
Persian Poet’s work has been recognized and reshared by voices across art, fashion, and culture, including Machine Gun Kelly, Ilana Glazer, Candice Swanepoel, and Travis Kelce.
