Born in Iran and raised in the USA, the artist focuses on bringing together the influences of Western and Eastern cultures in his painting. Often fusing elements of Persian carpets with Western modernism, the artist borrows from a wide range of sources. His mixed media paintings and collages are populated with floral motifs, geometry and religious iconography. Featured by the Green Art Gallery, Dubai, who represent a multi-generational mix of artists from the Middle East, South Asia, Turkey and beyond.
