About Me

In my cave where I smell no human, I craft my stories and fry my characters. Suddenly, I turn into a fly trapped in a box with my creatures. If I explode every single stinky idea pours out of my existence.

I’m an illustrator and animation artist from Iran, now wandering and creating in the Netherlands. My journey has taken me through Iran, India, and now here, each place leaving traces in how I see, feel, and draw the world. Observation is my favorite act of love; I study humans, our habits, absurdities, and quiet existential moments with a curious eye and a gentle sense of humor. For me, art is both a playground and philosophy. It’s how I question and celebrate being alive. I find joy in the simple miracle of creating something from nothing, a line, a thought, a heartbeat that turns into an image. Illustration was my first language, but soon my ideas began to move, to breathe, and demanded motion. That’s how animation and I found each other. Since then, I’ve brought two short films to life, each one an attempt to capture the strange, beautiful pulse of being human. I continue to use the power of animation to touch humans and tickle their existence.

Current Focus

I am currently developing a short animated documentary exploring the emotions and shared experiences of migrants following immigration to the Netherlands. This project is fueled by curiosity and authentic personal narratives from the migrant community.
