Najmeh Hoseini at her Mind In Balance solo exhibition
Najmeh Hoseini, PhD

Where the brain
meets the brush.

Figurative paintings, neuroscience-informed workshops, and the work of integrating two worlds — from a Los Angeles studio.

Commissions

For the piece that doesn't exist yet.

I take a small number of commissions each year — figurative work, neuroanatomical series, and portraits that explore the body as a site of memory and meaning.

Currently booking for late 2026.

About

I'm Najmeh.

A neuroscience educator, physical therapist, and self-taught visual artist based in Los Angeles. For over a decade I've taught the brain to doctoral physical therapy students. I paint where the body meets memory — where the science finally has somewhere to go.

I paint to translate what cannot be measured: the felt sense of being a body, in a moment, in a history.
