The Duality of Emotions: A Reflection on Courage and Fear" (2021) Ζωγραφική από Tashfeen Rizwan

The Art That Shapes a Soul
I was not born into wealth or privilege, but I was born with a gift: the ability to see the world not as it is, but as it could be. My earliest memories are bathed in colors, as my father, an artist, filled our home with canvases that spoke louder than words ever could.
Like Picasso, I shared a bond with my father that transcended the ordinary. Both of us were shaped by fathers who painted. Yet, where Picasso found his calling early, I wandered—a quiet observer in a noisy world, introverted by nature.
As a teenager, I stumbled upon a piece of wood and began to carve. Each cut felt like a whisper of intuition. By the time I was done, the wood had transformed into something extraordinary—a sculpture that felt alive.
My father established Mother Gallery, a sanctuary for art, where I spent 16 transformative years as a curator. Those years were a whirlwind—a kaleidoscope of colors, ideas, and emotions. I met artists who breathed life into canvases, intellectuals whose words carried the weight of centuries, and thinkers who challenged every perception I held. I wasn’t just curating art; I was curating my soul.
Mother Gallery became my university. I learned to speak the language of creativity, to translate emotion into form, and to tell stories without words. I organized exhibitions that celebrated humanity, seminars that sparked revolutions of thought, and debates that danced between passion and reason.
Then the pandemic came, silencing the world. But in that silence, I rediscovered my voice. Alone with my thoughts, I picked up a brush. Isolation became my muse, the blank canvas my confidant. With each stroke, I poured out emotions long buried—grief, hope, anger, and love.
Today, my life is inseparable from art. It is not just what I do; it is who I am. Without it, I would wither.
Because without art, we are merely shadows.

And with it, we are infinite. ...
