Raha Khosroshahi Iranian, b. 1997

 “It's as if painting provides me with a special perception of my own body and surroundings.”

Raha Khosroshahi’s paintings reflect the dynamic interplay between her body and stimuli from the world around her. From the objects and images, she encounters every day to the physical sensation of warmth or cold, her paintings are significantly influenced by her environment. “It's as if painting provides me with a special perception of my own body and surroundings.”

 

Khosroshahi’s fluid, abstracted forms and use of rich color and contrast invite viewers into an intimate expression of the artist’s experience, conveying a world deeply rooted in her instincts, interpretations, and lived experiences. Establishing an intimacy between painting and viewer is one of Khosroshahi’s endeavors as an artist.

 

Khosroshahi lives and works in Tehran, Iran. She received her bachelor degree in painting from the University of Science and Culture in Tehran in 2020.
