Being born and raised in Tehran I have done my BA and MA in Azad University's Art & Architecture Faculty.
My interest in arts lead me to carry on experiencing courses in Central Saint Martin's College of Art and Design in London, obtain a Master degree in History and Criticism in Arts and following to that a Master degree in Fine Arts in Rennes University in France.
My artistic activities are based on painting, but my recent collections are far more than a flat two-dimentional presention of a painting. A variety of textures, colors and forms made by mixed media is helped by collage and assemblage of unexpected found objects, which creates a playful and enjoyable journey to share with my spectators.
The artworld is where I can have total freedom. I create my own world with my own rules.
