Agony-9

Rifat Ara Mim, Bangladesh

I’ve been drawing ever since I can remember. Art is the one thing that I have aways enjoyed. I am looking for the boundary where safety and fear lies. Basically everything what we see is image, and emotions is that inner feelings,which is beyond in this image. I am searching for a scenery with a combination of these missing content. We have a scream inside us which is been creating by our surrounding reasons,and we're all hiding it from each other. When the surroundings merge with the content and it turns into a scream, from my own point of view I transform it into an image. I am inspired by Francis Bacon,Vincent Van Gogh and Rembrandt. I love the blending, filmlike quality of watercolor,experiments and thick textures of acrylic and the buildup of transparency that oil can achieve.These materials contribute their history to the timeless emotion I am looking for. Born 1995 in Bogura,Rajshahi,Bangladesh.Currently based in Dhaka,Bangladesh. From an early age I started drawing holding my mother's hand,I started Art College in 2011, but the institutional rules began to seem tied to my work.After completing Bfa(pre)degree coursein 2013, I decided to leave my academic journey for more freedom to think and not get guided by any dogma.
