Collection: Nasrin Iravani - Featured Artist

Artist Statement:
My work is a dialogue between tradition and innovation, where the timeless craft of ceramics meets the possibilities of emerging technologies. Rooted in my Persian heritage and shaped by my personal journey, I use techniques like 3D clay printing and visual programming to create pieces that explore themes of memory, connection, and transformation. Each piece tells a story, inviting viewers to reflect, connect, and discover their own narratives within the work.
I am captivated by the fluidity and versatility of clay, celebrating its ability to capture both the organic softness of human touch and the precision of digitally generated forms. This fusion of hand-built intimacy and technological precision results in works that feel both familiar and new, blending heritage with futurism in a way that sparks curiosity and engagement.
Through my art, I aim to build bridges between the traditional and the contemporary, the physical and the digital, and between individual experiences and shared emotions. I hope that each piece resonates with those who encounter it, inspiring moments of reflection, wonder, and connection.
