Pouya Ahmadi is a typographer and educator. His practice navigates the fraught intersections of language and modernity in SWANA and beyond, interrogating the spectral forces of displacement, alienation and contested belonging. Through publishing, installations and lecture-performances, Ahmadi engages with the material and discursive ruptures that shape typographic and linguistic ecologies. His work foregrounds fragmentation and transformation as catalysts for change, unsettling dominant epistemologies and opening fissures in the constructed frameworks of identity and meaning.
