„Art is a path to self-discovery and inner peace.“
Awakening to my creativity led me to shape my life through art. I express my state of mind by painting, sculpting, and photographing—using art to explore philosophical and spiritual questions, delve into emotional worlds, and transform abstract questions into tangible forms.
Born in 1972 in Tehran, Iran, I discovered painting as a gateway to my unconscious. Early exposure to the masters of miniature painting and modern art laid the groundwork for my creative future. In 1984, transitioning from childhood to an adventurous youth, I left Iran for France. The vibrant modern art scene there opened a new realm of creative possibilities. Later, for personal reasons, I moved to Germany—a challenging decision at the age of 15 that ultimately set me on a long journey toward realizing my most influential vision.
In 2004, I earned a Master’s degree in Textile Design from the State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart (ABK Stuttgart), which fueled my passion for design. At the same time, I continued to develop my own style using various techniques and media—painting, sculpture, and photography—all of which are showcased on my website.
