Adel Yazdi's vibrant murals and relief sculptures have transformed the neglected Narenjestan neighborhood in Shiraz into a cultural and tourist hub.
Adel Yazdi, an Iran ian artist, has transformed an alley in one of the old neighbourhoods of Shiraz into an open-air permanent art gallery. Yazdi has dedicated himself to revitalising Narenjestan, a neighbourhood characterized by crumbling, uninhabited houses. Over the years, he has turned the long-neglected neighbourhood walls into a vivid visual tapestry, telling the stories of the people living there.
Arabesque patterns and relief faces carved with intricate details and painted in an array of vivid hues of greens, pinks, blues, and purples now adorn the walls. His artwork includes the face of Scheherazade, referencing the legendary storyteller from the Arabian Nights. Yazdi’s work stands out in Shiraz where graffiti and murals are rare, becoming a social media sensation and a tourist attraction.
