Azita Panahpour deconstructs language to create a gestural vocabulary. In her ongoing series Shattered Poems, she transforms Persian letterforms into abstraction, stripping them of their phonetic function and rebuilding on their aesthetic qualities. Expressed through steel sculptures and multilayered painted canvases, her work moves through rhythm, repetition, scale, and movement. Through abstraction and reinterpretation, she shifts language from something to be read to something to be felt.
A former art director in New York's advertising industry, Panahpour continues to explore the visual and poetic potential of letterforms. Her work is held in private and institutional collections including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in New York and Dubai.
