The Poetry and Art of Michal (Mitak) Mahgerefteh

Atmospheric Blooms Series

each piece is created from my original photography

​

 

an ongoing series of experimental photographic works derived from my floral images captured during travel. Through digital transformation, botanical forms are softened and partially dissolved, shifting the image from documentation toward atmosphere. The work explores light, impermanence, and the space between clarity and disappearance. Printed as archival pigment prints on hot press paper, each piece emphasizes luminosity and a quiet, contemplative presence.

Currently 2026 exhibited at d'Art Center in Norfolk; Pavilion I @ Town Bank, Oceanfront, Virginia Beach; Gallery 75 in Alexandria: The Van Landingham Gallery in Alexandria. Forthcoming at Norfolk Botanical Garden and Bodzin Art Gallery.
