Koorosh Nejad: From Corporate Desk to Canvas

Not much of destination, really, it's just a journey that matters.
Ever wondered how a single moment can change your life? Koorosh Nejad’s story is a testament to the transformative power of art. In this episode of 'Born to Create', host Maria-Katharina Richters chats with Koorosh, who stumbled upon his artistic talent during the pandemic. Once a corporate professional, Koorosh found solace and a new purpose in art, helping him navigate through depression.
His work is deeply influenced by ancient cultures, mythology, and symbols, reflecting a passion that goes beyond mere aesthetics. Koorosh explains his unique creative process: he begins by researching a particular culture, selects elements that resonate with him, and then infuses them with his own cubist-inspired twist. The result? Intricate black-and-white pieces that strip away the distractions of color, allowing viewers to connect deeply with the cultural and symbolic essence of his work.
But this episode isn’t just about art; it’s about healing and personal growth. Koorosh shares how art became a lifeline during tough times, offering him a new perspective and purpose. He also delves into the challenges of overcoming creative blocks and the importance of understanding your audience when selling art. Whether you’re an artist or someone looking for inspiration, Koorosh’s journey is a powerful reminder that creativity can be found in the most unexpected places.
Tune in to hear how one accidental moment can lead to a lifetime of artistic discovery.
