I was born and raised in Baku, Azerbaijan, where early exposure to culture and contradiction shaped my perception of beauty, restraint, and inner tension.
My artistic practice emerged later in life, after years in which creative expression remained internal rather than visible. What was once held in silence now unfolds through gesture, material, and absence.
I work with the body not as a figure, but as a trace — a memory of movement rather than its representation. My paintings explore the space between presence and disappearance, where emotion is not illustrated but felt.
Each work is part of an ongoing inquiry into identity, time, and transformation — where what remains is often more important than what is shown.
