Artist Statement
“Iranian Nomads” is an expressionist tribute to the resilience and rich cultural heritage of Iranian nomads. Through this series, I delve into their vibrant and transient lives, using bold brushstrokes and vivid colours to capture the essence of their deep connection to the land and their enduring spirit.
The expressionist style is central to my approach, allowing me to convey the intense emotional and spiritual landscapes of the nomadic experience. Each painting is infused with poetic metaphors and symbolism, reflecting the hardships and beauty of their way of life. This lyrical quality echoes the traditions of storytelling and oral history integral to these communities, drawing you into the narrative of their lives.
This series is a visual narrative, a sequence of paintings that together tell a story, and an emotive journey that invites viewers to experience the nomadic life through an evocative lens. My art elevates the everyday experiences of these communities to a realm that transcends time and place, highlighting universal themes of movement, freedom, and the search for belonging.
“Iranian Nomads” is a celebration of these enduring wanderers’ indomitable spirit and timeless legacy. It’s an invitation for you to step into a world where every hue and line tells a story of survival, beauty, and an unbreakable bond with nature. Their spirit is a testament to the resilience of the human soul, a source of inspiration for us all.
