Description: A sea of muted blues initially suggests serenity, but closer inspection reveals polluted greys and ghostly hues that shift the atmosphere. The background becomes a space of emotional tension, guiding the viewer into a fragmented, unstable world. Despite the dissonance, there is a quiet pull toward meaning, or perhaps, toward memory.

About the Artist: Ziba Vishteh is a multidisciplinary artist with academic backgrounds in Architecture and Psychology. Her work moves between portraiture and abstraction, using the human face not for resemblance but as a doorway to inner presence. She paints through a physical, intuitive process, where limited color becomes a vessel for emotional resonance. Vishteh views painting not as representation, but as an act of being. She has exhibited in solo and group shows across the Middle East and the U.S., including a 2019 solo exhibition in the U.S. curated by Professor Sheldon Hurst.
