The sky is full of dreams. I discovered this as a child growing up in Bangladesh observing the sky as it constantly changed its colors and expressions with it. The sunrise, the sunset, the dark night, and the rain when it is full of dark clouds all seemed very romantic to me.
After graduating in Fine Arts I moved to the Netherlands and was inspired by Dutch masters like Van Gogh’s colorful paintings and Ruisdael’s deep, dark yet beautiful clouds. Now I live in Saudi Arabia where the sky is clear with simple yet rich colors, which inspires me to paint and experiment with all kinds of media. I work with watercolor, acrylic, oil, VR tools, and mixed media depending on the artwork. My works are sometimes realistic, sometimes impressionistic, and nowadays a bit abstract.
I am also inspired by the natural and social impacts in our lives. My recent VR multisensory experience “The Anticipation of Rain” is about the changing monsoon, which is one of the current climate change issues in the world, and also my personal story of paralysis in 1999. It was a grant winner from the Creative Solutions Program, Ithra. This VR experience was nominated for three awards and participated in many festivals, for example, it was nominated for awards and participated in The International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam.
In 2023 she was invited to be a jury member at the Red Sea Film Festival for the VR Awards.
My paintings participated in many biennials and exhibitions internationally. Such as the 19th Asian Art Biennale and, the 8th Beijing Biennial. My paintings are also collected worldwide, for example, at Shangri La Hotel Jeddah, Aramco executive offices, and some private collections internationally.
