Fedra, a contemporary artist, explores the universal quest for home. Her paintings are an exploration of diverse cultural influences, intertwining ancient Eastern textile traditions with Western aesthetics to create a dialogue that resonates with anyone who is yearning for a place of belonging.

Having embarked on a personal journey that led her far from her origins, Fedra's art is deeply infused with the emotional echoes of seeking where one truly belongs. Her integration of ancient textiles and rugs symbols universally associated with the warmth and comfort of home serves as a constant anchor to her cultural roots, even as her Western-influenced abstract compositions explore broader, borderless narratives. Fedra begins with a detailed draft drawing on canvas, linen, or paper, central to her creative process. Using acrylic, gouache, and ink she presents traditional compositions with shapes and figures that mimic abstract styles. Bold tones are paired with earthy hues, and traditional motifs are rendered in a contemporary style, inviting viewers from different backgrounds to find common ground.	
Her paintings often feature  small, childlike figures, miniature dogs, and mythical creatures, often depicted with evocative blank faces in vivid colors. These blank faces, frequently contained within their own geometric spaces, symbolize the perpetual feeling of being unmoored or in transition at the very heart of the search for home. The  vibrant colors conveys an intense, hopeful desire for that sense of belonging, persevering despite unfamiliar surroundings. The childlike imagery evokes a universal nostalgia for the past, while bright shades embody hope and the promise of new beginnings on this journey. Earthy tones represent the foundational warmth of a true home.
Fedra's art is a journey of searching for home in its broadest sense. She transcends geographical and cultural boundaries not just to connect East and West, but to explore the universal human yearning for a place of belonging. By blending ancient traditions with modern expressions, her work fosters a deep connection among diverse audiences, guiding them through their own personal search for home. 

"The story behind my paintings belongs to all who long for home and those in search of belonging and hope."
