Maryam Deyhim

Maryam Deyhim is a contemporary painter whose work has been exhibited internationally across the UK, Europe, the United States, the Middle East, and Asia. She has received multiple awards and international recognition for her practice.

Her paintings are built from figures, forms, and symbols that accumulate into dense, symmetrical compositions, held together by pattern and rhythm. The work draws on both external sources of inspiration and an intuitive inner vision; images that take shape through a sustained process of looking and making.

Rather than directing a single reading, the paintings invite the viewer to slow down and spend time. The more closely the work is seen, the more it opens; connections emerge, details surface, and the whole remains alive to interpretation.

For Maryam, painting is a way of giving form to an inner world without fixing it in place.
