Have you ever felt like you had to choose just one path in life?

... I never wanted to.

I chose my academic path and the career I’m building. But I also chose art, a way to create not only with what I know, but with my own hands.

And when I wanted a place for that art, I built one. Parisa des Lys became more than a name for my paintings. I created its identity and even coded the website you’re exploring right now.

It reflects something I strongly believe... we don’t have to be just one thing.

We can pursue our ambitions, follow our curiosity, create, learn, and make room for everything that matters to us.

I choose all of it.
