The artist
Somia Naveed
Somia Naveed's work explores emotion through restraint — where color becomes memory, silence becomes structure, and each composition holds a quiet tension between presence and absence.
Somia Naveed is a contemporary artist working between pigment, paper, and silence. Her practice centres on cobalt — a colour she treats less as a hue and more as a material memory. Each work begins as a slow accumulation of washes and ends at the precise moment the composition asks for nothing more. Her works are held in private collections internationally.
