    "Ever since the alternative photo-printing techniques have been my main fields of interest as they assist me in the unification of my two fields of interest, photography and painting, developing a unique way for me to represent my work. Myths, stories and generally all kinds of narratives, along with all the elements that follow this concept such as symbols, characters, characteristics and different ways of storytelling, are principal concerns for me in making art. Through a process of photo shooting, photo collecting and bringing the ideas of each photo into conversation with the other images by a process of collages, gradual characters, their belongings and the overall atmosphere of the works, reveal themselves to me in their narratives and spring to life.
