Sohrab Sepehri

In different periods of time, the connection between literature and art has been noteworthy, and many works have become beautiful artworks using visual arts.
And today, art is trying to enter the field of literature with all its tools
Considering the naturalism of Sohrab Sepehri and his amazing descriptions about the unanimated (this word does not exist) inanimated and animated nature and his use of visual elements in his poems as well as the fact that he is also a painter, we chose this contemporary poet to use his poems and paintings to design some dresses in order to improve the status of current Iranian dress. (This sentence is too long) 

In this project, we have tried to find out more about this poet by knowing(maybe ”discovering” would be a better word to use here) Sohrab Sepehri’s moral and professional specifications.
Then, we investigated the symbols used in his poems by carefully analyzing them, and also we also drew paid attention to and analyzed the colors used in paintings and poetry to choose a better color for dresses.

Considering very powerful imaginations of this contemporary poet-painter, we analyzed imaginations in Persian poetry, as well.
Among the subjects of 135 Sepehry’s poems, 43 of them were somehow related to the nature and natural elements.
Also by looking into the prologue of Sepehri’s poems we can see that 83 of them are referred to the nature.
The mind, thought and art of Sohrab is closely intertwined with mystical thoughts.
With a symbolic expressions in an innovative way, he tries to express his exuberance, discovery, intuition, and other mystical states.
He is a poet with an unusual attitude and word, whose poetry is in the way of changing the semantic, pictorial and oral habits in poetry, and provides the reader the possibility of seeing and thinking differently.
He basically invites humans to try and prowl to get the truth, with phrases or in poems like “Mosafer” (passenger), “Neshani” (address), “Sedaye Paye Ab” (the sound of water step) etc. He by himself tries to carry out “single I” to a “plural We”.
Sepehri works in symbolic frames of understanding the universe, in quadruple period of his work, is marked in the steady continuation of understanding the universe and mystical.
A good dress designer, by using a poet’s poetry specifications can create a work deserving the poetry (? does not sound very good. try to use another expression), that can be related to the poems themselves as well as carrying a beautiful image of the theme of poems.
