Where the Rivers Held Breath


This series seeks to capture something beyond the surface of drought. These are not mere images of a parched land — they echo fractures that run deeper than soil. Quiet, growing ruptures. The dryness seen here is not just a climate event, but a metaphor for a slow unraveling — as if something essential, something once vibrant, has gradually drained away. Once, these beds held rivers. They held motion, exchange, continuity. Now, what remains is a hushed terrain — flaked, fractured, awaiting a rain that no longer arrives. This body of work is an invitation: not to look at the […]

Death, Life, and What Lies Between


Trees that are broken, fallen, or still resisting. This is the threshold between life and death—a place where sometimes, falling is not the end, and continuing is merely a choice. “After the Storm” The trees in this series are remnants of a fierce storm—standing yet heavy, broken yet still present. The silence that lingers in these images carries the weight of a historical fatigue. Time seems frozen in this land, caught between ruin and anticipation. There is no sign of a beginning or an end—only a persistence that feeds on its wounds, and a winter that seems unwilling to leave. […]

The Room They Built for Me


Everything is exactly where it should be—beauty, order, colors that soothe the eye. A room that seems perfect, yet designed to be seen rather than lived in. “The Room They Built for Me” is an image of presence without agency, of a space that exists, but perhaps not for her. Here, walls are not just physical boundaries; they define what remains unseen. Is she inside the room, or is the room inside him?

Silent Mothers


Silence weighs heavier than words. Light breathing within darkness. Faces carrying the past, gazing into the future. “Silent Mothers” is a narrative of what remains unsaid, of eyes lost in time. Mothers standing in the shadows—neither in the past, nor the future—caught in a limbo only they understand. This series is not a tribute, nor a protest. It is simply an image of what is.

The Fluidity of Power


The first experience of the power relation is initially formed within a family and then it is extended over to the society. Dominance, in all kinds, has destructive impacts on the individual and society’s mental health, causing an incline toward unsustainable manipulation. The power-structured relations create a reaction between weakness and weakness that are demonstrated through different ratios. The disability of the power is shown simultaneously with its forming, in another word, one can observe it is falling off, right at the time of rising. The weakness that has just gripped the strength struggles to eliminate the defeated weakness and […]

Scan


Documentary and Conceptual Photography Series Tehran, Iran | 2018 In Scan, I photographed passengers sitting in the front seats of cars travelling along Valiasr Street in Tehran. The photographs were taken from pedestrian bridges, using a fast shutter speed and a top-down perspective. From this elevated viewpoint, the camera briefly isolates people moving through the city. Each image transforms an ordinary moment of travel into an observation of urban life, personal space, movement, and anonymity. The title Scan refers to the act of visually searching the moving city. The series explores the contrast between the continuous flow of traffic and […]

Surcharge


In the past, with the removal of a king and the coming of the new king, the writing on the coin should also be changed, and the name of the new king was written on new coins. For the production of molds, it took a lot of time to collect the old coins, melt them and make the new coins. Therefore, the best possible way was a temporary coin punch. In this method, old coins are punched with a small mold that something is carved on it to make the old coins look like the pattern of the mold. By […]

External Factor


The ego resorts to a series of defense mechanisms with an element of self-deception in order to deliver from the anxiety caused by the unfulfillment of its needs, the satisfaction of which would be ensued by castigation and punishment from society as well as the conscience. The element common between all the defense mechanisms is the friction between the conscious and subconscious mind. Whatever regulates human behavior plays the role of the external factor; This imposed friction drives the individual to confront the existing situation to the point that the individual loses their natural ability and is left with some […]

Reborn


The day the human body is born, his soul dies. There are only few human beings with a crystal spirit blown to their soul as their mortal body is born. Innocent simple creatures born next to the human trait who remain the same till the last seconds of their life; the species that we, so called humans, try not to notice; as we escape from our real reflection mirrored in their souls. We, human beings, are reborn several times during our life. At time, our soul, and at another our muddy body will be recreated. But those from whom human […]
