Iran, Tehran

Having more and more information about the history of my nation also Knowing more about my background and being connected and commited to it has always been enjoyable for me and has paved the way for my improvement one way or another.

Generally speaking art in my land is so noble and introverted that getting to know its true nature is not easy.

It is so delicate and magnificent that does not fit easily in the mind of people in this fast paced life style. It needs long hours and even  days and lots of efforts to find And get to know the deep feelings of brush’s dance of arabesque and ornaments.

At times we get lost in between all these varieties of art. And once we get lost in it the glitter and luctury of the modern world has no chance to catch our eyes.

I am so close and familiar with its nature and colours that I enter the world of those artists so effortlessly.

Today I know it so well that I can see it even with closed eyes.

I can paint it with my current feelings with all my heart pieces of this type of art  in large dimentions show so much  details that can not be ignorred and unseen.

These pieces show my feelings today and connects me to my roots and origins.
