About me
I was born and raised in Tehran. My dedication to art began since I was a little girl making toys out of broken objects and spending days with my paintings and books. Nevertheless, I graduated in engineering at the university, I was gathering knowledge in art, esthetics and art history while working as an engineer. After I had my first solo exhibition in Tehran, I quit my job and career to be a full time visual artist. I spent 6 months as a resident artist in Spain, Albacete and after that had two group exhibitions in Madrid and Leon. After a while I found myself drawn to art history and old paintings of Iran and that’s how I began to incorporate my occidental art education with oriental motifs and atmosphere.
