Free from Fear

My art is a profound embodiment of the myriad emotions and experiences that have punctuated my sojourn through this world. With each stroke of my brush, I seek to capture the quintessential rawness and intensity of the human condition - the sublime beauty, the harrowing pain, the interminable struggles, and the glorious.

My artistic vision is a resounding call to action, a relentless pursuit of exposing society's most insidious realities - the prevalent discrimination, the entrenched injustice, and the taboo-ridden ills that are oftentimes shrouded in secrecy. A deep-seated compulsion drives me to give voice to those who have been rendered voiceless, to invigorate the human spirit and illuminate the dimly lit corners of our collective conscience.

For me, my paintings are not mere ink on a canvas, but rather a conduit through which I express the inexpressible, a vibrant testimony to the ineffable power of art to communicate emotions and thoughts in a way that words simply cannot. Each piece is a labor of love, a meticulously crafted representation of my innermost soul, beckoning viewers to enter into my world and experience it on a profoundly emotional level.Free from fear, oil pastel on paper, 48x37 cm Tashfeen Rizwan, 2022.
