Sepideh Badakhshanian is a multidisciplinary artist and photographer based in Los Angeles. She holds an MFA and works across photography, sculpture, textile, and handmade jewelry to explore themes of memory, ritual, and emotional residue. Her practice transforms personal history into tactile forms, creased, crystallized, stitched, or cast in silver.

Rooted in both softness and defiance, her work speaks through materials that remember: fabric that has held breath, metal shaped by hand, images that linger like touch. Each piece becomes a quiet gesture toward what’s been carried, hidden, or left unsaid.
