Inspired by the still-life paintings of the 17th century, Foroughi's work centers primarily on the delicate beauty of flowers. Light also holds an essential visual and conceptual significance in her work. The artist observes the movement and interplay of light on the flowers in silence for hours, immortalizing these perfect fleeting moments into masterpieces.
She sees flowers not as passive subjects but as dynamic entities imbued with profound emotion. She creates captivating works that evoke a personal connection with these floral subjects by merging her soul with the flower's spirit.
Through her meticulous compositions and emotional connection with her subjects, she invites viewers into a silent dialogue with these floral subjects. Her paintings transcend mere representations, becoming gateways into the intricate relationship between humans and their surroundings.
