As an independent painter, the artist’s practice focuses on exploring the relationship between the human inner world, identity, and the surrounding environment.
In recent works, the artist has developed a personal visual language through the combination of human and fish-like forms, with the fish serving as a recurring element throughout the paintings.
The artist’s interest in the visual traditions of East Asian art, particularly Japanese and Chinese painting, has gradually influenced their artistic approach. They are drawn to the simplicity of forms, the relationship between negative space and composition, and the poetic qualities of these traditions. Alongside these influences, they incorporate elements rooted in Iranian culture and imagery to develop a personal and contemporary visual language.
In the artist’s work, the fish is not merely a representation of an aquatic creature; it symbolizes fluidity, transformation, duality, and a sense of distance from ordinary human life. By merging the human body with the fish, the artist explores the coexistence of different identities, emotions, and states of being.
Through color, texture, form, and the interaction between human and non-human elements, the artist seeks to portray inner experiences and psychological complexities. Their artistic practice continues to evolve through experimentation, allowing them to explore new ways of expressing personal and collective experiences within a contemporary context.
