shafaq ahmadA series of 40 works created by artist Shafaq Ahmad
On exhibit March 4, 2022 through May 27, 2022
“These forty images were created one each day for forty days continuously, keeping in mind that every action is a part of the whole. This series is essentially made as digital images and is developed by taking photos of the left over paint or stains on the disposable paper palettes that I used while making paintings. I saw interesting formations that to me appeared organic shadows of the colors I love to use. After I photographed these images I transferred them to a photo editing program. By repeating the design I was able to create the images I have now in the series. The images are also inspired by the Islamic geometric designs, as far as repetition, balance and harmony which creates a sense of infinity and beauty. The same characteristics can be observed in Nature where things of unmatched beauty and harmony are ever present.”
