I was born in 1993 in Ahvaz, the city of warmth and light. Since childhood, the world of painting and playing with colors has had the greatest influence on the formation of my works today. The same childish view that imagined that paintings could create a great change in the world is still present in the layers of my works today.
In my work, I strive to present something more than a beautiful image or a momentary impression. Textures, materials, and the play between dullness and brightness of colors are tools to express tangible emotions and invite the viewer to experience an emotional challenge.
My works may seem confusing or even frightening at first glance, but upon closer reflection, one can see traces of time, memories, brief joys, or even fear and loneliness in them; like a boat ride on the water or trees blooming, small but full-of-life moments.
My paintings are a combination of neo-expressionism and realism. The presence of hands in my works has a symbolic aspect; a reminder of the love that has faded in today’s world. The use of the crow, which in a legend sacrificed its colorful feathers for freedom, became my artistic signature.
Also, the use of traditional Iranian carpet and fabric motifs and the blue, yellow, and red lacquer colors represent my roots and cultural heritage. The golden sun and the movement of the figure’s hands symbolize the cycle of creation and the light of Iranian women.
For me, each painting has its own story; a story that takes on new meaning based on the life experiences of each viewer. Layers of color and texture can be a sign of success, joy, silence, or even fear. This poetic space between fantasy and reality is where my paintings take shape.
Over the years, my works have been displayed in numerous domestic and international exhibitions, from the “Language of Nature” exhibition in Shiraz to the Palestine Museum in Tehran, as well as exhibitions in Türkiye, France, and online spaces.
The solo exhibition “Inside Me” in Shiraz was a turning point in my artistic path; where my thoughts and feelings were presented directly to the audience. The publication of my works in the Contemporary Artists’ Booklet in 1404 also marked another part of this path.
My main message in art is an invitation to pause and reflect; a moment to hear the whisper of thoughts amidst the chaos of the world. My works are an attempt to find a balance between small joys, freedom, liberation from childish fears, and acceptance of the realities of life.
