Passionate about cultural development, he works to promote culture and defend human rights through art. He draws inspiration from exchanges with different cultures, which feeds his creativity and allows him to develop a new art form with a clear and distinct identity.

As the founder of the Tajroubeh theatre troupe, he has gained extensive theatrical experience aimed at challenging stereotypes and social, political, and cultural clichés. Through his creations, he seeks to encourage the audience to overcome these barriers, while promoting the development and dissemination of culture and defending human rights and our humanity.

The workshops he organizes, bringing together professionals, amateurs, and children, follow a drama therapy approach and provide social and psychological support. They promote personal development through theatrical exercises, where body language plays a central and omnipresent role in his performances.
