Presentation
I was born in Kerman, Iran, in 1979, my family relocated to Tehran, where I live to this day. My interest in painting and in art in general, manifested at a very early age.
I studied graphic design at Alzahra university of Tehran in bachelor degree, between 1997 and 2001, then in 2004 I started study art reserche in master degree, and graduated with distinction in 2007.
After finishing my studies, I follow my faviorate field in art, illustration, by participating in illustration courses run by Morteza Zahedi for four years. From that time my creativity gradually grows. In line with that I took place in sculpture courses by Morteza Zahedi and Mohammad Mardi. Among all those techniques, paper-mache has attracted me highly.
Since 2014, consistently I have made paper- mache sculptures. Besides these I miss art studies and I have started phd in art reserche since 2019.
Now I study and work as an sculpture- illustrator simultaneously, and enjoy both of them.
