Gilded Cages is a digital mixed media piece exploring materialism in relationships. Set in a Dubai aquarium, a gold-covered mermaid and a shark share a gaze symbols of beauty and wealth confined in a luxurious cage. The work invites reflection on the emptiness of surface-level connections and the deeper fulfillment found beyond material allure.
Freedom of Expression is a digital mixed media piece contrasting two women one in Iran in a hijab, the other in the U.S. in a bikini to explore culture, choice, and identity. Through glitch effects and layered imagery, the work reflects how societal norms shape personal freedom. It’s a call to honor every woman’s right to choose her path, beyond borders or expectations.
The Bridge to a Father’s Strength is an indoor landscape photograph created during the COVID-19 pandemic, as I returned to Iran to care for my ailing father. His legs appear as mountains, with a fragile bridge and a tiny figure balanced between symbolizing the uncertainty I faced and the strength he gave. Though he couldn’t walk, he remained my guide. This work is a tribute to the quiet, enduring power of a father's love.
