A versatile, multi-faceted artist, Marjane Satrapi grew up in Iran in an intellectual family of progressive thinkers. She draws inspiration from her cosmopolitan culture and expresses her artistic talent in a variety of media. Starting out with drawing, she then branched out to writing, painting, film-making, writing lyrics and now acting. By calling on these different forms of expression, Marjane Satrapi has created a body of work that appeals to and can be understood by everyone.
In 2007, the films adaptation of Persépolis was a big success. This attracted international attention to this well-rounded artist and provided an opportunity for the public at large to discover her many other creations.In her art, Marjane Satrapi uses a form of pictorial expression that makes a remarkably eloquent statement in simplicity.

Her entire body of work communicates the two cultures, Middle-Eastern and Western, that shaped her artistic vision.
