Statement:
Abyss: pit, deep and cavernous place
Analyzing the relationship between man and nature is not an unlikely subject for creating a work of art, many times we have stood in front of a landscape and experienced an unknown feeling, stunned by its beauty and grandeur, a meaningful moment that sometimes appears from beyond the scenery and color, and at once, something other than beauty and glory becomes visible and reveals the hidden moment.
The landscapes of this collection, however, do not seek to show a hidden secret or a shocking glory, they do not try to excite the spectator, no image is completely modeled on nature, and the continuous destruction and reconstruction of forms and with a limited color palette, does not leave much other than a personal and ghostly fantasy. The upcoming works are an effort to record the deep traces of the climate in which I have lived - Gilan - on my mind and being. A nature full of beauty, sorrowful peace, humidity, destruction, loneliness and suffering Indeed a shame that the experience is not completely transferable and a part of the truth always remains hidden, but I believe:
"If you stare into abyss, the abyss will stare back at you."
Nietzsche
