About
A puppet maker at heart, I remain deeply connected to performing art and story telling.
Something that progressed to sculpting after immigration and motherhood.
My moving puppets stopped moving, they lost their limbs and started to tell stories silently instead!
Working primarily with air drying clay and resin I create figurative work focusing on female body with a poetic approach. My artworks are where poetry meets sculpting and each and every one poppet has a story to tell. They all live in my head till the day they are born holding a piece of my soul, my experiences and my journey through life, from childhood, immigration, love, loss, motherhood, belonging, estrangement and nostalgia.
In the last 13 years I have worked in media as an art director, host and producer.
I am also a self taught animator/illustrator working as a freelance with various medias such as Marjan Television, Volant media and BBC Persian.
