Liminal
2020 Transitioning from the familiarity of home, family, and friends to a life across the globe poses significant challenges and evokes a whirlwind of emotions. As an artist, I've discovered that one of the most effective methods of coping with such a profound change is to articulate my feelings through writing, later transforming them into visually expressive designs, whether as posters or simple Instagram posts. Sharing these sentiments provides a profound sense of tranquility and fulfillment. In this particular poster, the projection of words onto me serves as a poignant symbol of the act of vocalizing one's inner thoughts and emotions.

Liminal is a word that, in its most common extended sense, refers to a state, place, or condition of transition: the liminal state between waking and sleeping, or between life and death.
Oceans Between Us
2020 "I would have walked an ocean for you" from the Separation of Two Lovers project (in Farsi and English). The design and the feel of the poster is responding to the quote as it shows itself underwater as well.
The Fall
2020 This quote is inspired by the constant dream of us falling down a higher edge and never hitting the ground. This feeling depicts a never healed heart as it is feeling the rush and fear of falling down but never fully experiencing the pain of hitting the ground and the healing after.
