Sohrab Sepehri

Untitled (from the Tree Trunk series)

1970

"Untitled (from the Tree Trunk series)" exemplifies Sohrab Sepehri's meditative approach to abstraction through his layering of gouache and oil on paper. The work belongs to a significant series in which the Iranian artist explores organic forms and natural textures, translating the visual essence of tree trunks into compositions that balance figuration and abstraction. Through his mixed media technique, Sepehri creates a contemplative visual experience that reflects his broader artistic philosophy integrating spirituality, nature, and poetic sensibility.
