Hello, I’m Shiva Partovi — a Persian-born abstract expressionist painter drawn to the luminous and the unseen. I left Iran as a young child, carrying with me fragments of its colors, traditions, and the spiritual values of the Baha’i Faith that shape my life. My lifelong love of dance and piano informs the rhythm of my brushstrokes, giving my paintings a sense of movement and musicality. Through bold, layered gestures, I paint resilience, hope, and the quiet strength that helps us rise and move forward.
