Born in Iran on december 1965
Working and living in Paris

The pictoriality of painting and the orality of poetry come across one another in my work and resonate together. It is concerned with the poësis of painting, its very beginning, and searches for the essential link between poetry and representation. I say that I paint poems. They tell me about my painting and present in a graphic way what my painting attempts to reveal through visual signs. I make out a singular being in my paintings. This singularity is achieved through his memory in a kind of game where the image gradually appears. It comes into existence by the way it is made, thanks to the closeness of the viewer.
