Nazanin Hedayat Munroe is a New York-based artist, curator, and textile historian. Specializing in historic garments and woven textiles from the Early Modern Persianate world, she has published two books, book chapters, and several articles with The Metropolitan Museum of Art (NYC), as well as several scholarly journals. Her body of work is composed of handmade garments and textile-based installations, exploring and reinterpreting historical textile motifs as expressions of cultural identity, storytelling through images, and dress as a metaphor for the internal self.
