Helia's work is a direct reflection of her imagination. She has the creative ability to form images by channeling the sensations of her soul. Born and raised in Tehran, Iran, she was exposed to lush and intricate Persian art all of her life, from the colorful carpet patterns, to the sacred geometric tiles. While this upbringing inspired her with classic Persian art, it also taught her the challenges of being a female artist in the Middle East.
This collection brings together her love for Eastern Art and culture, mixed with her current Western surroundings.
