About this listen

In this deeply personal episode, Iranian artist Hanie Soltani shares how science led her to painting — and how painting, in turn, became her way of understanding life. After studying cell biology, she turned to art to reconnect with emotion and material, discovering freedom in color and canvas.

Her figurative works often depict women — not as statements, but as mirrors of her own empathy and perspective. During the Werkstattwoche, she arrived after a long and difficult journey from Tehran, finding calm in the flat northern landscape of Germany and translating that serenity into her art.

This conversation is about courage, transition, and the quiet strength of staying true to oneself — even when life demands reinvention.
