Samaneh Eshaghi

Samaneh Eshaghi is a visual artist based in Iran. Her practice focuses on portrait and figure drawing, primarily using ink-based tools. She has participated in numerous exhibitions both inside and outside of Iran and has also been recognized in several design competitions. Currently, she is focused on expanding her personal ideas and concepts to create new works. Samaneh’s work is driven by her thoughts and feelings about human emotions—desires, concerns, sorrows and pains, excitement and joy, and strange or unconventional thoughts. She is drawn to seemingly insignificant and mundane worldly events that, despite their simplicity, deeply engage people and provoke emotional responses—feelings that may be fleeting but leave a lasting impact on one’s psyche and perspective. Her works emphasize inner monologues, honesty, boldness, transparency, vulnerability, and an embrace of the fluid nature of the creative process. At its core, her art reflects her inner world, filled with the emotional overflow of different human experiences.
