persian poet is a first-generation multidisciplinary artist and writer. she grew up in the frank lloyd wright suburbs of chicago, raised by iranian parents who built their world through design, fashion, and textiles. her grandmother was a writer, artist, and author, connecting her to language, storytelling, and creative expression from an early age. surrounded by art and aesthetic intention, she developed a creative practice exploring identity, memory, and culture.
Now based in New York City, she transforms language and identity into work 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 worn, recognized and/or reshared by voices across art, fashion, and culture, including Machine Gun Kelly, Candice Swanepoel, and Travis Kelce. Her collaborative work extends across food, art, and culture, with projects for 7th Street Burger and INTER_IAM Museum.
