Hasti is an Iranian interdisciplinary graphic designer and visual artist currently pursuing their MFA in Graphic Design at Yale University. Their practice lies at the intersection of conceptual storytelling and experimental design, bridging traditional and digital processes to explore time, memory, identity, language, and transformation. Drawing from film, photography, book design, typography, sound, and interactive media, they create poetic and research-driven works that blur the boundaries between art and design. Through both collaborative and independent projects, they seek to build experiences that are emotionally resonant, visually compelling, and critically engaged with the world around us.


Endless In-Between
Film and Media
This project  explore recurring dreams the artist had for years, dreams about fish. In these visions, they see themself and the fish locked in a looping examination, asking: “Who are you?” The project is loosely connected to the inkblot test, a psychological tool used to uncover the unconscious. Through this work, they attempt to examine their own unconscious and search for the reasons behind these persistent images.




Recurrent
Recurrent explores the cyclical relationship between time, life, and memory through the language of layering. Drawing from natural processes like sedimentation and fossilization, it reflects on how traces of existence accumulate, decay, and transform. The sound was recorded using real fossils, capturing the act of breaking rocks and searching through layers to echo the passage of time. Each layer, whether material, sound, or image, becomes a record of life’s continuous unfolding, where endings and beginnings coexist within the same plane.
Resurface

An experimental study of time and transformation. A brachiopod fossil found in Cincinnati, Ohio placed in ice and recorded as it melts. Through motion, and generative falling numbers, the work mirror sedimentation that shows the slow passage of time.
