About the artist and founder

 

Cocovan is a 36 year old performance artist. Born in Paris, France, to an Iranian father and a French mother, she spent most of her twenties pursuing a career as a pop singer in the USA. Grown tired of the music industry, she started exploring performance art in public spaces in 2016, with the intention to enchant the streets and bring poetry into the daily life. She hasn’t looked back ever since. She has done art performances in public spaces in more than 16 countries around the world.

Cocovan has given a TEDx talk at Columbia University in NYC, and has even given a (little) speech at the UN Headquarters.
