Tamina Amadyar, The Big Dipper

Tamina Amadyar translates her surrounding into abstract landscapes made out of the two central elements of painting: color and shape dominate her works. There, where one color borders, touches or overlaps the other, the observer gets the chance to experience the purity of individual shapes, colored solely by pigment and rabbit-skin glue, as traditionally practiced by Renaissance painters. The borders of the painted forms or shapes of color – in Amadyar’s work these two descriptions are equivalent – create new colors and forms that result in compositions and patterns that at the same time expel harmony and dissonance, balance and instability, calm and tension.
