Farnoosh Ashrafi

My paintings explore the relationship between light, colour and atmosphere as a way of connecting inner and outer realities. I create dreamlike landscapes, architectural spaces and mysterious interiors that exist somewhere between memory and imagination. Through painting I try to transform everyday impressions into poetic environments that invite contemplation and personal interpretation.
Light is the starting point of my work. It shapes space, defines mood and creates emotional tension within the composition. Colour allows me to build these atmospheres and to construct visual spaces that feel both familiar and uncertain. I am interested in moments where reality becomes unstable and opens itself to imagination.
My paintings often develop from simple visual impressions or memories, which I gradually transform into associative spaces. These environments do not describe specific places but suggest emotional territories where the viewer can move freely. I think of each painting as an open space where personal stories and feelings can emerge.
The balance between structure and freedom is essential in my work. I combine controlled compositions with intuitive decisions, allowing forms and colours to evolve during the painting process. This dialogue between intention and discovery gives each work its own internal rhythm.
Through my paintings I seek to create quiet but intense visual experiences where space, light and colour come together to form poetic and atmospheric worlds.
