Sabzi's subjects are almost always women, beautiful, graceful, taciturn, and lugubrious, they reflect solitude. His women are madonna's, modern goddesses, and martyred saints whose elongated form suggest instability and internal conflict. Their anonymous faces transform them into religious icons that transcend and defy the demands of reality. Yet, other paintings reflect warmth, charm, gayety, happiness, and his undisputed love and admiration of women.
Sabzi's paintings resonate both Eastern and Western philosophies. His rich Persian heritage provides him with ancient images and sentimental Persian themes and memories of innocence. The Western source of influences comes from one of the most creative moments of modernism of Cezanne and Matisse. Sabzi's debt to modernism, especially Matisse, is irrefutable. His earthy hues of pale greens, yellows, purples, and reds illuminate the settings and inspire the forms with unique inner vibrations. The treatment of the human face as luminous geometric planes though schematic, is nevertheless a profound statement of the artist's quest for spirituality.
