Art by Arham

Oil painter
based in Seattle, WA.

As a queer artist, I’ve often experienced the world from its edges. That perspective informs my attraction to dreamlike spaces where beauty becomes a form of refuge and imagination offers an alternative to reality.

These works are meditative in process and intent. Built as quiet environments where emotion can surface without explanation. I’m often interested in how beauty can hold complexity, and how subtle distortion can reveal something more honest than realism.

I hope these paintings invite viewers to slow down, recognize something of themselves, and find beauty in the space between what is seen and what is felt.
