Pouyeh Peyman — Where Myth Meets Matter

In the evolving landscape of fine art jewelry and wearable sculpture, few artists blur the line between myth, body, and contemporary design as gracefully as Pouyeh Peyman.

A wearable-sculpture artist, contemporary jewelry designer, and university lecturer, Pouyeh’s creations unfold where art meets anatomy — transforming jewelry into a language of storytelling.

Each piece she creates is a single-edition work of art, emerging from a dialogue between imagination and the human body. Her works weave together ancient myths, living nature, and personal experiences, reshaping them into contemporary fine-art forms that both adorn and awaken reflection.

From the Depths — A Collection Born of Dreams

Her collection “From the Depths” was inspired by recurring dreams during a period of illness and healing.

In those dreams, Pouyeh saw the ocean — vast, dark, and alive — mirroring the human experience. Within its depths, she imagined the woman’s body as the source of birth and survival, carrying both chaos and creation within her.

The pieces from this series — intricate, organic, and deeply emotional — are wearable sculptures that tell stories of resilience, transformation, and rebirth.

 

Bridging Eras — From Myth to Modernity

In another series, Pouyeh draws inspiration from ancient Sialk motifs — hybrid beings that once symbolized imagination and protection. Through her craftsmanship, these forgotten myths are reborn on the contemporary human body, becoming bridges between past and present, reality and legend.

Every creation is meticulously handmade — a single edition that carries both the soul of history and the pulse of modern artistry.

 

Nano Art — Where the Invisible Becomes Visible

One of the most fascinating aspects of Pouyeh Peyman’s artistic journey is her exploration of Nano Art — a groundbreaking fusion of science, sculpture, and jewelry.

In this collection, microscopic forms and textures are magnified and translated into wearable designs that challenge our perception of scale and detail. What is invisible to the naked eye becomes a poetic visual experience, merging technology and craftsmanship in perfect harmony.

Through Nano Art, Pouyeh invites us to see the world differently — to recognize the beauty hidden in the smallest fragments of existence.
