ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Shattered Poems #72 is the letter T enlarged and repeated, falling out of various poems. The letters are composed over multiple poems by Hafez which end in the letter T. The poems are layered on top of each other in different directions creating an added texture to the background. Shattered Poems is a narrative on displacement, loss, and identity by creating a dynamic gestural vocabulary drawn from the Farsi alphabet and poetry. Emphasis is placed on the alphabet’s sculptural shapes. Its curves, lines, and forms became the base of a new visual language. These gestural variations on multi-layered painted canvases communicate in rhythm, repetition, scale, and movement. More than representing sound, in this series, alphabets become the beat to reveal the human sentiment of love, loss, fear, joy, and empathy. Shattered Poems are an intersection of past and present, transformation and hope, art and culture, an individual depiction of a universal sentiment.

Azita Panahpour
United States
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
