MANIC SPARKLE, THE PARADIGM OF DEATH & NOT DEAD

Nima began his career path in the late 90s with an Olympus Om2 negative photo camera. He worked as an assistant photographer at his friend's photo studio for three years before he became a freelance photographer. With his Hasselblad medium format he specialised in studio photography and practiced fine art photography. Other than advertising and architectural photography he has conducted around a dozen conceptual photo exhibitions held in well-known galleries inside and outside of Iran.

After fifteen years in Iran's competitive commercial photography industry, he began studying film theory and practice in academia to broaden his field of expertise. With his background in photography during the course of his studies he created a series of video art and experimental short films which were recognized in many festivals in Europe, Canada, Chile, and the United States. He got his Bachelor of Arts in tv and film studies at eastern Mediterranean university/North Cyprus and is currently pursuing his career as a freelancer in Vancouver, BC.
