The encounter of love and wisdom

From self-portraits collection

Human is a complex being beyond the mortal body. I think the human psyche is immortal and has eternal life. It lives in another world before and after our body. Sometimes I like to paint my imagination. In this work, I have depicted an unknown space between a dream and a nightmare that has a symbolic expression. In the ancient culture of Iran, the snake is neither a factor nor a factor of existence. In this painting, it has a dual presence; it is a symbol of death and at the same time immortality and birth. I pictured the snakes which have penetrated inside and outside the body and have an annoying presence. The fish is a mystical symbol of the soul and the psychic fluid. Both living things create a new world by destroying a part of the body which may be painful but a perfectionist. The human psyche suffers more when it understands knowledge and emotion.
