Foudazi is an interdisciplinary artist whose work includes drawing, painting, and installation. She uses her artistic practice as a catalyst for introspection through which she explores her inner landscape, a realm of the unknown, infinite, and transcendental. Her inspirations are derived from Islamic introvert personal practice of thinking, Sufism. This practice embraces many spiritual disciplines which emphasize Self-liberation and enlightenment. Her work has been exhibited nationally and international and is represented in a variety of private collections.
