I am a multidisciplinary artist and photographer, born in 1993, living and working in Tel Aviv. Working across still photography, mixed media, video, sculpture, and writing, explore power, boundaries, the body, identity and notions of home. 

 

My work begins with my family background. I grew up in a meticulously maintained home with dominant women and in a symbiotic relationship with my mother. My parents and family emigrated from Iran during the Islamic Revolution. The end of their lives there and the beginning of a new life in Israel, the family's process of integration into Israeli society, and the conflicts that arose from this transition have profoundly shaped my identity and worldview.

 

I was raised between two languages, each carrying its own way of making meaning. Hebrew was the language of my everyday life, while Persian - my parents' mother tongue, surrounded me without ever becoming a language I could speak. I came to know it through intonation, rhythm, gestures, silences, emotional codes, and shifting forms of intimacy and distance. It became a language absorbed through the body rather than through words. Within the family, I encounter a history marked by migration, displacement, pain, survival, and rebellion.

Working with my own body and my immediate surroundings, family archives, organic materials, and remnants of everyday life that I collect and preserve, I have developed a visual language grounded in symbols and images. The feminine and the masculine exist in constant negotiation. Masculine symbols appear with vulnerability, tenderness, and emotional openness, while feminine symbols reclaim the wildness, freedom, and primal force that have long been restrained and suppressed. Through these gestures, the image becomes a language through which pain, memory, and trauma continue to inhabit both the body and objects.
