“As an obsession since childhood, painting is my number one occupation and everything else orbits around this sphere. . However, art, in general, has always been my ‘occupation’. .I write verses to complement my painting; I compose music to nurture the other two; I do all three to be alive—not only feel alive—and then, I perform and the stage is the final thrill—my ultimate reward. .For me these worlds are inseparable.”

—Koorosh Angali
