About Me
Exploring Painting; Sculptures and Poetry
Esfandiar Ahmadi, a poet and painter hailing from the beautiful city of Shiraz in Iran. I draw my inspiration from the renowned Persian poets Saadi and Hafez, and love to experiment with various forms of poetry. My artwork is a direct reflection of my poetic musings, and together they delve deep into the intricate workings of the human mind. I’ve had the pleasure of showcasing my creations at exhibitions and sharing my poems with literary circles, and have even been lucky enough to snag a few awards along the way.
