About the creator
- I’m Zarintaj Hosseinzadeh — an artist and graphic designer with a formal academic background in Graphic Design. Over the years, I’ve been deeply immersed in the world of visual arts and illustration, using art as a powerful language to express emotions and stories that words often cannot capture. My artistic research centers on Persian manuscript art, particularly the linear compositions and aesthetic sensibilities found in Safavid and Timurid scripts and handwritings. This deep-rooted connection to the authenticity of Iranian art has profoundly shaped my creative identity. Through my collections, I aim to reinterpret these traditional elements within a contemporary context. I work with symbolic language and schematic forms to explore and convey timeless themes. Now based in Dubai, I continue to share my work with those who connect emotionally through visuals — for me, this is a space of boundless exploration and meaningful artistic connection.

Artistic Style
Zarintaj Hosseinzadeh’s artistic style is a contemporary reimagining of classical Persian manuscript art. Her work is defined by delicate linear compositions, symbolic visual language, and a schematic abstraction rooted in the aesthetic principles of Safavid and Timurid scripts. She merges tradition with modernity, using her deep cultural knowledge to explore emotional storytelling and timeless themes through minimal yet expressive forms. Her art often carries a poetic stillness, inviting viewers into an introspective space where heritage and personal emotion intersect.
