Artistic Style and Themes
Elahi’s work drifts between reality and reverie, exploring the quiet poetry of night skies, silhouetted trees, and ethereal landscapes. Her compositions, dominated by layered hues of blue, evoke calmness while suggesting hidden emotional depths. Recurring motifs such as trees and nocturnal skies serve as metaphors for solitude, mystery, and the vastness of inner worlds, blending the familiar with the dreamlike.

Vision and Approach
Maheen is drawn to transitional moments where the boundaries between the scene and the imagined blur. Through subtle tonal shifts and layered imagery, she invites viewers to linger in suspended, contemplative spaces where time seems to stand still. Her work encourages quiet wonder and introspection, offering a poetic meditation on solitude and the imagination.
