About me
a wearable-sculpture artist, contemporary jewelry designer, and university lecturer.
My practice unfolds at the intersection of body and matter, where jewelry becomes not merely adornment but a language of storytelling.
Each of my pieces is one-of-a-kind, born from the dialogue between imagination and the body –
weaving ancient myths, living nature, and human experiences into contemporary forms.
My name is Pouyeh Peyman
Alongside my personal work, I teach and research contemporary jewelry design at art universities, striving to build a bridge between academic knowledge, conceptual art, and future-oriented design.
This website is a window into my world –
a collection of works inspired by the past yet speaking the language of today, inviting you to touch, reflect, and experience.
