I am an Iranian/American artist and educator, born in the Philippines in 1961. Raised there and Iran, I finished high school in Colorado in 1978. My BA is from Bennington College in Vermont (1982) and my MA and MFA are from Rosary College Graduate School of Fine Arts, Dominican University, in Florence, Italy (1983, 1984). I studied in NYC with Julio Alpuy from the Torres Garcia School of Universal Constructivism of Uruguay. In 2016 I studied Tibetan Buddhist thangka drawing and painting at ITTA in Dharamsala, India, and in 2018 and 2020 at Shechen Monastery’s Tsering Art School in Nepal.
My work has been exhibited and collected internationally, including the exhibition TOTEM at the Boca Raton Museum of Art; MEAM (Museum of Modern European Art) in Barcelona; Taubman Gallery at Michigan University; Museo Mazzoni in Maldonado and MuHar (Museum of the History of Art) in Montevideo, Uruguay; Italia Docet/Laboratorium (a collaborative event of the 56th Venice Biennale), and 21st Century American Women Artists at the U.S. Mission to NATO in Belgium.
