Niky Motekallem is an Iranian-American illustrator  and gallery artist who depicts flora and fauna in various states of decay. They use intricate lines and bright colors inspired by nature and their Persian background to depict rot and rebirth.

When they aren't working in the studio, Niky can be found brewing a decadent cup of tea, meandering through antique shops, going on hikes with plant identification guides, or playing D&D with friends.
