Biography :

Mohammad Ehsai is a distinguished Iranian calligrapher and calligraphy-painter, widely recognized for his role in developing and promoting modern Persian calligraphy painting in Iran and internationally. He studied art at the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Tehran, where he later taught graphic design and calligraphy. Throughout his career, Ehsai has held numerous exhibitions in Iran and abroad, received international awards, taught at art universities, served on the boards of Iranian calligraphy and graphic design associations, and judged various art biennials. His extensive knowledge of traditional Persian calligraphy enabled him to develop a distinctive modern visual language. In Ehsai’s calligraphy paintings, words and the intricate interplay of letters take center stage. Rather than focusing on individual characters alone, he transforms entire words into flowing visual compositions, weaving letters together to create intricate graphic textures and patterns. His work bridges the expressive qualities of Persian script with the principles of modernist painting. Art critic Alireza Sami-Azar has described Ehsai’s exploration of the formal possibilities of Persian letters as a major contribution to Iranian calligraphy painting. Through the deconstruction and rearrangement of words, Ehsai releases letters from their conventional structures and connects the visual beauty of Persian calligraphy with modern artistic expression.
