Deevan Deev

Ceramic Artist

Niloofar Noori, known artistically as Deevan Deev, is a ceramic artist whose practice begins where imagination meets clay. Drawing from ancient myths and storytelling traditions, she builds a world of playful, expressive creatures shaped through her own distinct visual language. Color plays a central role in her work — bold, lively, and full of character — bringing each figure to life with a sense of joy and curiosity. Her focus lies in continuously creating new forms and narratives, where mythical roots evolve into independent, contemporary identities.

Working through clay and fire, Deevan Deev approaches each piece as a living presence.

Every sculpture is entirely handmade, from the initial sketch to shaping, multiple firings, and layered glazes that give the work its final energy. For her, ceramics are more than material - they are a language for expressing imagination, stillness, movement, and emotion.

Each piece exists as a unique, collectible artwork, positioned between myth and contemporary art - objects that are not only seen, but experienced and carried forward as stories.
