Offering
It was black at first. Just like adeath of tree. And I was coveres (dressed) in white, Just like when I was born, By the vastness (eternity) of the beach
The purity of my being wxperienced the blood of the earth, And then, I was green all over while released of all boundaries. In the cover, I put on my veil since we have always been together, ever since I was 9. smetimes out of divine love and sometimes out of hatred. Now I only enjoy it's purity, and it plainness, It's whiteness and i offer all of this to the endless greatness. I have used natural materials from the specifiv sites to perform this pice in different environments. Also my friends help me to record these performancese every time
Collaborative art
I am an art teacher. Recently, I have been doing some collaborative art works with my students which are mostly environmentally. In the beginning, I research about social and tradition of local students and find out about the materials that they could work with and afterward I plan for a project which usually takes about several days or sometimes months. Finally, I present them as a performance or an installation. Mostly, materials are useless objects or recycle.

The party
“68 musty glasses from the party”
After one month mother and father came back from Mecca.
(Pilgrimage).
Family, friends, colleagues and neighbors came to visit them.
Now there are some musty Paper glasses next to me and the memory of the party days. A Friday. At home.

In the "Chador ", I put on my veil since we have always been together, ever since I was 9, Sometimes out of divine love and sometimes out of hatred.
