"COMPANION by Anahita Amouzegar
"Beautifully Ugly" is a series of mini original paintings inspired by the dolls I loved as a child in Iran, called Arusek-e Zesht — “ugly dolls.” Their awkward, uneven features carried more beauty for me than any perfect doll could.
Each piece in this series is painted on a small canvas, abstract and untamed, filled with wild colors and expressive faces. They are meant to be affordable and accessible, so anyone can have their own “ugly doll” at home.
For me, these paintings are more than portraits — they are fragments of memory, a way to reconnect with home, even though I haven’t been back for 12 years. My hope is that each doll brings the same sense of comfort, belonging, and beauty in imperfection to your space.
