To me, art is a way to open deeper conversations and imagine the worlds we are still trying to build. My practice moves across ceramic sculpture, installation, image-making, and public art, shaped by trans-local experience, cultural memory, layered identities, and the connections between past and present.
Through altered and reassembled visual languages, scripts, and inherited forms, I explore belonging, identity, and place. My work creates space for personal and collective histories to meet contemporary social and cultural life.
I am currently a PhD candidate in Environmental and Urban Change at York University, where my research focuses on diasporic artists, public art, postmigration, and politically charged placemaking.
Alongside my artistic and academic work, I have extensive experience in arts education, community arts, and cultural programming in Iran and Canada.
