About hamansutra
Teheran-born hamansutra is a multicultural, multidirectional communication designer and fashion creator who now lives and works in New York after studying at Central St. Martins College of Art and Design, London, and building up a reputation as a fashion maverick in Hamburg, London and Munich. Under his own hamansutra label, he has worked with customers as diverse as Microsoft, Porsche, Vertu, Nike and Audi, created award-winning costumes for music and advertising videos, appeared on China’s biggest TV entertainment show in a bid to tailor a jacket in 20 minutes, and communicated his message of hardcore fashion throughout a host of cutting-edge media from Ping Tokyo to Trace New York. hamansutra’s multicultural background and life has stamped his cross-disciplinary approach. Familiar from an early stage with the unique qualities of contrasting cultures yet unfettered by allegiance to any single one of them, he translates the freedom resulting from this independence into his art and focuses on clothing as the medium to communicate his message. Provocative yet not solely political, playfully reflecting the dualities of the world around him, hamansutra’s work is groundbreaking and dynamic, powerfully conveying his aim that clothing should fuse image, function and decoration.
