The Story of PERPETUAL BLOOM
For a year and a half, I’ve been trying to create something special. Not just something special to me, but a work with a new and distinctive style. I wasn’t looking to create something unique just for the sake of being different. I wanted to create something that hadn’t been done before, something with a purpose, a story, a deeper meaning, and a reflection of what I believe art was meant to be.
After many attempts, I finally arrived at PERPETUAL BLOOM.
The Concept and Style
The first thing that sets this work apart is its style. Anyone familiar with art knows that geometric abstraction relies on sharp, rigid geometric shapes. To me, these shapes represent the harshness of life and the difficult reality I face, as well as the struggles anyone can experience when life becomes hard.
But what happens when nature tries to grow inside this rigid world?
In PERPETUAL BLOOM, we represent the organic forms of nature as they try to grow despite the harshness surrounding them, the lack of opportunities, and the difficulties along the way. It is a nature that never stops trying, even when circumstances seem designed to prevent it from growing.
By combining the organic forms of nature with geometric abstraction, I sought to create an artistic style that brings together two contrasting worlds: a world of rigid geometric shapes that symbolize harshness and limitations, and a world of organic forms that symbolize life, growth, and continuity.
This contrast is the essence of PERPETUAL BLOOM and the foundation on which I built its artistic identity.
I want this art to express the idea that growth does not always depend on having the right conditions. Sometimes, growth itself can be an act of resistance and a determination to live.
What Makes This Art Different?
What makes this experience meaningful to me is not only the style, but also the journey that led me to it.
I am a refugee. I have never visited an art museum, seen a painting hanging on a wall in a home, or attended a drawing class. I did not grow up in an artistic environment, nor did I study art through traditional methods. What drove me to create art was my need to express something I carry inside me, and my belief that art can offer a person another path in life.
For me, art preserves my dignity and keeps me from having to beg. It is my hope of entering a world filled with colors, a world that is not limited to the white color we have grown accustomed to wrapping around the bodies of those we have lost in war.
I lost my father, my mother, my three brothers, my son, my grandfather, and my home in the war. These losses left a deep emptiness inside me, until I felt like a body without a soul. Today, I am trying to recover a part of my soul through art.
I do not create art because my life has been easy, but because I am searching for something that helps me keep going. I want to transform some of the pain I carry into colors and shapes, and give meaning to what I have lost, something that can endure.
For me, art is not merely a way to express myself in the present. It is something that can remain even after the artist is gone. A person may leave this world, but what they leave behind can continue to speak for them and reach people they never met.
I want art to be my way out of a world associated in my memory with loss and pain, and my way into a world where things can begin to grow again, despite everything that has happened.
Why Does Art Need a Story and Meaning?
I have often heard different opinions about art. Some people say art has become pointless. Others believe it no longer carries meaning or tells a story. Some describe certain works as unattractive or difficult to understand.
For me, the issue is not whether everyone likes the same artwork. Art is naturally experienced differently by different people. But I believe an artwork can be more than just an image someone sees and then moves on from.

Read his story and if it moves you, support him in any way you can even if it's just an engagement with the post💚
I live in a world completely different from yours.
For 16 years, I’ve felt disconnected from life itself. Year after year, I realize how little I know about the life others live.
You talk about hope, opportunities, friends, family, and sitting down for coffee with someone who cares about you. I have none of that.
I lost my father, mother, three brothers, and grandfather in the war. Then I lost my middle son because I couldn’t afford to get him the medical treatment he needed.
My wife left because she couldn’t bear the harshness of our circumstances, leaving me with three children. Today, only two remain.
How can I work and provide for them when I can’t even leave them alone for 15 minutes without returning to find them injured or crying?
I try to create art with all the precision and passion I have. I dedicate my time and effort to it, yet no one seems to care. Perhaps it’s because I’m not influential, or because I don’t have the money to support others so they might support me in return. I don’t know. But I know I’m trying with every ounce of strength I have left, even though I have so little remaining.
Sometimes, a person doesn’t need money or fame. They just need one opportunity, one person who believes in them, or one helping hand when they feel the entire world has abandoned them.
Sometimes, I believe that those who leave this world finally find peace, far away from hunger, war, and the cruelty of life.
You live your lives, while I spend mine trying to survive. We may live in the same world, but we don’t live in the same reality.
When the art is revealed, you’ll be amazed by the incredible variety of colors and modern abstract styles. What I’m showing you now is nothing compared to the surprises yet to come.
Mint PERPETUAL BLOOM and join me.

Please fam, let us give a helping hand. I'm not telling you to send money or something like that.
Start by reading his post below, then stop and feel. And if it does not get to you ok then don't bother cause then I know you don't give a sh..
But if it makes you feel like me, and I feel why🤷♂️ Why do people have to go through this, I hate wars. And I hate that it hurts those who did not ask to be a part of this.
So let's share a helping hand by sharing his story, let us say this is not ok. What if it was my family? Maybe we at least can make his art bring some light🙏
Share and support the best way you can, this one deserves it fam🫂⬇️

Yet my belief in my success, my confidence that I’m on the right path, and my certainty that people will one day recognize the value of my art continue to grow.

I would be happy if someone told me my art wasn’t beautiful or criticized it, because I’m confident in the quality of my work and believe its price is fair and accessible to everyone. There’s nothing wrong with my art. The only reason it isn’t getting support is that I’m not famous, well-known, or influential. If I were, my art would have succeeded instantly.

Every follower is a friend to me. It hurts to feel that sharing my art bothers people, but art is my only way to earn a living without begging. My young children depend on me. I have no choice but to keep trying.
Hello family
I need support, not financial help, but simply moral support.
Lately, because I’ve been posting about my art so frequently, my reach on X has dropped significantly. Most of my posts barely reach anyone, which means my art isn’t getting the visibility it deserves.
If you could engage with this post or my pinned post, you would be helping me tremendously and giving me the motivation to keep going. Thank you for your support.

If artists don’t support each other, who will? And if we continue rewarding fame over creativity, what kind of future are we building for art?
Lately, I’ve been paying attention to artists who create deep, meaningful, and exceptional work and put tremendous effort into what they do, yet their art remains unsold and almost completely ignored.
Meanwhile, I see people who aren’t necessarily artists but are famous, selling their work simply because of their fame.
What hurts me the most is seeing talented artists support celebrities in hopes of helping them sell their work, while their own art remains neglected and forgotten.
We are feeding the very fame that overshadows art itself, and then we wonder why genuine artists are not appreciated.
Good morning family🌞
Do you think we can succeed without all working together and supporting one another?
Has retweeting and liking a post to support an artist suddenly started costing millions, and nobody told me?

Slowly but steadily, with determination, we will succeed, God willing. Never give up. The day will come when people appreciate art and artists, not because of their fame, but because of their creativity, their stories, and the depth of their art.

This art represents my story, my hope, and my purpose. I’ve just finished writing my story, from birth to the present, in a concise but clear way, including everything and all the important details of my life.
And you’ll discover why PERPETUAL BLOOM means so much to me.
If you’d like, get a piece to make our day better and to support art, artists, humanity, and humankind.

Day 6 of tagging @osseneth until they see... someone else's art.
Today I wanted to highlight some other people on my timeline whom I've noticed have had to deal with some struggles.
@pan_danil is one of the OG members of this space, and someone who has helped dozens, if not hundreds of artists get a footing in this space. AGAH auction house was so welcoming and was my first community here.
@Awful_Eye is someone who has recently gone blind because of illness, and so I wanted to highlight their work. I don't know if they can use this platform at this point, but I'm still sharing.
@eissakilo I don't know personally, but from reading posts, seems to be someone going through extremely harsh challenges in life, and has been through to so much awful stuff.
If I can get anyone to look at these people and their work I've succeeded. I've attached a piece from each of them.
I’m continuing to write my story today so I can share it here as a thread, which is why I’m a little busy. But trust me, owning a piece of PERPETUAL BLOOM will mean more to me and my children than words can express. At the same time, you’ll become part of something meaningful, built with passion, hope, and the belief that art can make a difference.
