Shahin Charmi was born on September 17, 1953, in Iran.[1] He studied at the Muthesius Academy of Art in Kiel, Germany (from 1980 until 1985), under Harald Duwe and Peter Nagel.[2] Charmi is married to Austrian artist Patricia Bolf-Charmi.[3][4][5]

In November 1989, Charmi painted the mural titled, Revolution und Krieg [DE] (English: Revolution and War), located at the Polecat Bunker (German: Iltisbunker Zeichnet) in the Gaardner district of Kiel.[6][7] The mural is a narrative of the historical events from November 1918 and the Kiel sailor uprising, to World War II, and the murder of Rosa Luxemburg.[7][8]

In 1990, Charmi was awarded the Golden Plotter Award, for computer art by the city of Gladbeck in Germany.[9][10]

In 2011, Charmi worked on stage design for Rustam and Esfadyar, for the Fajr Theater Festival at the City Theater of Tehran and Vahdat Hall.[11]
