Mixed Media on Canvas (Framed)

Description:

Haleh Mashian fuses natural inspiration with contemporary material innovation. Vertical bands resembling tree bark stand layered against one another, yet their surfaces feel fluid and untamed — almost liquid in appearance. This dynamic texture is achieved through her use of resin, crystalline accents, and mixed media, which give the painting luminous depth and a sleek, modern sheen. The glossy surface carries a vinyl-like quality, making the natural imagery feel simultaneously organic and futuristic.

The palette is richly varied, with earthy browns and grays intersecting with vibrant passages of blue, green, pink, and gold. These juxtapositions highlight Mashian’s ability to transform the familiar form of trees into a contemporary expression of movement, light, and color. The result is a composition that feels both grounded in nature and alive with modern energy.

As a striking example of contemporary abstract art, “Untamed Stillness” reflects Mashian’s distinctive vision — where carving, painting, and material layering merge into a single immersive surface. Exhibited at the West Hollywood art gallery and part of the Los Angeles contemporary art scene, the work speaks to collectors and designers seeking bold, textured statement pieces that bridge the rawness of nature with refined contemporary design.
