ABOUT THE ARTWORK

My series Shattered Poems was initially inspired by a verse from Rumi and later evolved to a form of visual poetry. As I analyzed words and then individual letters, I became fascinated by the beauty of its form. The letters movement on my canvas created a larger shape that seem to have it's own dialogue. Here the emphasis is on the emotion the shapes can create rather than the verbal context hence the pieces become more universal. No 60 shows the letter N interlocking. The shape conveys the idea of holding on and staying together. The series also hints to my personal journey of leaving my homeland. My fading memories represented in the distressed background finds strength and beauty in the rhythm of composition. There is a sense of distressed elegance a conflict of past and present.

Azita Panahpour (born in Tehran, Iran) is a contemporary abstract artist living in New York. In her Shattered Poem paintings, she explores feelings of displacement, loss, and identity, by creating a dynamic gestural vocabulary drawn from the Farsi alphabet. The alphabet’s sculptural curves, lines, and shapes become the basis of a visual dialogue, built with variations in scale, repetition, and sense of ephemeral movement. The images—set in multi-layered, distressed backgrounds—dance, fall, intertwine, and emerge with a deep emotional statement that transcends any literary expression. The Shattered Poems are a collision of past and present, loss and hope, culture and art, an individual depiction of a universal sentiment.   A multi-disciplinary artist, Azita’s works are in private and corporate collections. Her series was selected for a solo exhibition at the National Arts Club New York 2023 as well as multiple group shows including Powerhouse Arts- Ad Art Show 2023, The Other Art Fair, 2020, 2018, 2017, Ad Art Show at Sotheby’s 2018 and in the Oculus 2020, 2021
