ABOUT THE ARTIST

The inspiration of works come from nature and Persian culture which believes that images of the trees are symbolizing the freedom and integrity. It was thought that the essence of the tree carries the trustfulness, so anyone who breath in the scent of the tree could not be deceitful in its presence. We are dependent on something much bigger than we think. We are all connected, we ruin nature, and all those tree deformations at my paintings is my struggle to make people notice it and to be aware of destroying Mother Nature. Adoring the landscape paintings and it's respect of self-internal states of being to be part of nature. In my paintings, I'm not interested in mimicking the nature but I combine it with the inner world of nature in order to reflect more of the visible world, to lead towards deformation at the same time and abstraction. when I start painting, it's completely spontaneous and allows colors and forms to be combined, that create unity. Every piece is built up with several layers of acrylic colors and sometimes I let some layers to remain up to the final stage, some layers glazing within multiple transparent layers of colors. My works can be found in private collections in Iran, Turkey, United Kingdom, United State, Germany, Thailand, Taiwan, France and Bosnia Herzegovina.
