Created as meaningful Persian wall art, World Is Meaningless brings flowing Persian calligraphy into a modern setting. Its multicolor composition gives the artwork enough presence to anchor a room while leaving space for the poetry, symbolism, and personal associations to remain central.
Poetry and Meaning
Drawing on the poetic tradition associated with Rumi, World Is Meaningless explores impermanence, humility, and the freedom that comes from loosening the ego. Lettering and imagery invite a pause, giving the philosophical idea room to unfold rather than reducing it to a decorative phrase.
دنیا همه هیچ و اهل دنیا همه هیچ
ای هیچ برای هیچ بر هیچ مپیچ
دانی که پس از عمر چه ماند باقی
The original-language inscription is preserved as part of the artwork’s cultural voice, while the English title offers a concise guide to its central idea.
Designed for Meaningful Spaces
World Is Meaningless is well suited to a living room, bedroom, office, entryway, dining area, or meditation space. Its multicolor composition works with modern, minimalist, transitional, and eclectic interiors, and its cultural focus makes it a thoughtful gift for a wedding, housewarming, Nowruz, birthday, or anyone connected to Persian art.
