MOMENTS
A glimpse into my stories, inspirations, and unforgettable moments.
On a festive Saturday afternoon in early December, I had the pleasure of participating in the Winter Market—a lively event filled with warmth, creativity, and community spirit.
As part of the event’s program, I presented a partial exhibition from my environmental project SAVE THE OCEAN, alongside leading a hands-on art workshop. The project is a heartfelt tribute to the beauty of our marine world and a visual call to protect our oceans and waterways.
Surrounded by visitors of all ages, curious questions, and meaningful conversations, the day was a beautiful reminder of how art can spark awareness and connection.
A truly inspiring moment-where creativity met purpose, and winter lit up with waves of hope.

In a vibrant corner of Amsterdam, artist and curator Saèd Fanari brought together a unique collective of contemporary voices under one roof. The pop-up group exhibition transformed a temporary space into a dynamic platform for visual dialogue, where works from a range of artistic backgrounds met in harmony and contrast.
The exhibition presented a rich diversity of mediums, narratives, and cultural influences, offering visitors a multi-sensory experience. From abstract explorations to figurative reflections, each piece contributed to an atmosphere of curiosity, tension, and emotional resonance.
Saèd Fanari’s vision for the show went beyond simply displaying art - it created a space for connection and conversation. Viewers wandered through the curated collection, reflecting on personal and collective stories, and experiencing the subtle interplay between individual expression and shared humanity.
The success of the exhibition lies not only in the art itself, but in the way it activated the space — a fleeting yet powerful reminder of how art can momentarily reshape the rhythm of a city, and leave a lasting impression far beyond the frame.
