Ask Yourself Whatever You Want turns poetry, identity, and the emotional depth of Persian visual culture into contemporary Persian wall art. Through flowing Persian calligraphy, the piece creates visual movement while preserving the cultural character at the center of the design.
Poetry and Meaning
The quatrain directs the seeker inward, suggesting that what we pursue in the world is already present within the self.
Featured Persian verse:
بیرون ز تو نیست هر چه در عالم هست
در خود بطلب هر آنچه خواهی که تویی
Attribution: This widely circulated classical quatrain appears in multiple collections and has several attributions, including Rumi and Baba Afzal Kashani; ORIAVI does not assign it to one poet.
Meaning: Nothing in the world lies outside you; seek within yourself whatever you desire, for you are that.
Designed for Meaningful Spaces
Ask Yourself Whatever You Want is well suited to a living area, studio, workspace, hallway, or quiet reflection space. Its warm vintage character works with contemporary rooms as well as spaces with traditional Persian accents, and its cultural focus makes it a thoughtful gift for a wedding, housewarming, Nowruz, birthday, or anyone connected to Persian art.
