Alia Rafiq creates evocative fine art that blends romantic, noir aesthetics with a sense of nostalgic déjà vu. Working out of the California Mojave Desert under her brand FORGED in FLOWERS, she produces:
Dreamlike portraits & prints – often tinged with dark allure, stirring emotions tied to beauty in imperfection.
Talismanic objects – handcrafted pieces that feel both personal and mystical.
Fine art pieces that explore themes of wanderlust and ephemeral memory, weaving in her heritage and a cinematic sensibility .
In short, her work is romantic, subtly moody, and deeply rooted in storytelling – each piece feels like a fragment of a dream or a personal artifact from another time.
