Artistic Style and Philosophy
Yaraghchi's visual approach occupies an intermediate space, oscillating between the abstract and the representational. He works primarily with oil on canvas and uses casual photographs or images of everyday scenes (and even references to crime scenes) as the basis of his work. His process reconfigures these images into dreamlike compositions where perspectives are distorted and conventional logic collapses.
The artist possesses a fascination with the "terrible" or the abject, elevating disturbing or unsettling images to a new aesthetic state. Through the strategic use of color and the interplay of light and dark, Yaraghchi seeks to slow the viewer's perception in order to transform the familiar into something entirely mysterious and subjective.
