About the Item

This 60" X 60" inch large-scale mixed media piece by Haleh Mashian is a dark colored abstract expressionist figurative painting. ABOUT THE WORK - When one stares at the night sky, one can only contemplate about the existence of life in other galaxies. What would a human-being look like if they were of extraterrestrial nature? Mashian fused a ghost-like human figure sitting at the edge of a night sky, looking through a hypnotic gaze at the mystery of what is out there. In this mixed media piece on wood panel, the bold use of brush strokes and jewel-like tones invite the viewer into a realm of galactic fantasy where an explosion of light and color is taking place. MASHIAN AS AN ARTIST - For over 30 years, Haleh Mashian’s art has colorfully illustrated her unique, insightful view of the world, both real and imagined. As a creative expressionist, Mashian’s art embodies her enchantment with color, composition, and the interplay of positive and negative space. Working in mixed media and using a variety of techniques from collage to impasto. Mashian creates a range of dynamic pieces in various sizes to accommodate the residential, retail, and hospitality markets. Mashian works across various series, each of which has a personal story behind it. Whether inspired by a spiritual experience, introspection, or simply the beauty of the world around her, Mashian is driven by her passion for color, texture, and scale. “Creativity is my natural religion,” Mashian shares, as she describes the act of creating derives from a divine consciousness, where higher intelligence takes over and the connection with the mind and intuition unite. It is a space where one can channel the divine energy into tangible forms of expression. In this flowing state one becomes fully present and open to receive what is rightfully theirs. Recently expanding into sculptural and three-dimensional art, she is incorporating LED light, plaster, and other materials that bring her pieces to life. Her love of interior design has also led to an exploration of the digital realm. Fashion, and furniture manifest her artful vision of living and her belief that art – physical and digital – sculpture, fashion, and interior design can all be seamlessly combined to create a sublime and expressive lifestyle. HER STORY - Haleh Mashian roots run deep in both Jewish and Persian culture, having been born and raised in Tehran, Iran. Despite her family being the subject of persecution due to their religious minority status, Mashian remained resilient and in 1987, she fled Iran with her brother to seek religious refuge in the United States. Amidst the challenges of immigration and religious persecution, Mashian’s passion for a free and expressive life persevered. She feels very fortunate to be a United States citizen and to be able to pursue her passion and her authentic voice as a woman. Haleh Mashian's creative energy knows no bounds. Her firm belief that creativity can be infused into every aspect of life is a testament to her unwavering passion for the arts. Drawing inspiration from the parallels between music composition and painting, Mashian composes unique pieces of music for every series of paintings she creates. This approach allows her to delve deeper into the subject matter and express its nuances through both visual imagery and sound, creating a truly immersive experience. For Mashian, the ultimate goal is to “bliss out” and connect with her audience on a deeper level, showcasing the transformative power of creativity and its inspiring power.
