When looking at a work by multi-disciplinary artist Toktam Tayefeh, one feels as though one is entering the space between waking and sleep. Whether working in paint on canvas or through high-tech digital imaging techniques, Tayefeh’s works have a feeling of otherworldliness, conjured completely in the imagination, and allow the viewer’s mind to wander and explore through the realm of the artist’s own dream space. Her works speak quietly to the viewer, beckoning the eye with peaceful rhythms and a gentle sense of energy and movement. As they delight the eye, they soothe the spirit, speaking directly to the heart in the language of truth, beauty, integrity and individuality.
Relying almost completely on her imagination and rejecting the constraints of traditional art, Toktam Tayefeh prefers to think of herself as a “creator” rather than an “artist” and her work, which creates as much of a calming ambiance as it does a beautiful object, reflects this sentiment. Born in Tehran, Iran, Toktam Tayefeh now lives and works in California.
