Bahar, meaning
Spring — painting
Summer
Known in the art world simply as Summer, Bahar Torabi paints the season that never quite leaves us — the one we carry in memory long after the light has changed.
Her practice joins classical oil technique with a modern devotion to luminosity. Layer by patient layer, she builds canvases where warmth feels less like a temperature and more like a place you can return to.
Each piece is a journey through years of emotion — momentary warmth made permanent, seasons transcended through oil and light.
Where warmth is build , layer by layer
Chasing the hour
Every canvas begins outdoors, in the narrow hour when sunlight turns honest — observed, memorised, then rebuilt in oil before it cools.
Classical hands, modern eyes
Old-master glazing and impasto meet a contemporary obsession with luminosity — texture you can almost feel radiating heat.
Memory, made permanent
The goal is never the scene itself — it is the feeling of having stood inside it. Paintings as keepsakes of warmth, for the colder seasons.
