Cityscapes, 2012

​

Sets of paintings complement each other in reflecting the impact of the city on me. My work involves photographing large-scale paintings and printing I am very interested in the concept of cities and how they represent a collage of the lives and destinies of their residents and visitors; of finding and defining the similarities and differences between people in multiple different cultures and creating a visual vision of these concepts. I would like to compare the lives of people who live in the Middle East, where there are many political, religious and social problems and issues, with the lives of people in other parts of the world who have their own specific and particular concerns.
