Hello, I am trying to develop a plugin, however, I ecountered an issue trying to improve its look.

How can I access default icon (or current theme icon that overrides default one) of some module to display it?

I have tried looking at render pages but could not understand how to do it.

See https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Using_images_in_a_theme, which explains more about images in Moodle in general, even though it does not answer your exact question.

The answer to your question is really the method $OUTPUT->pix_url('icon', 'mod_forum').

Thank you.

I have missed that document thinking it will be about theme building without any code, however, it does answer my question.

Will be a lesson for me to read everything.
