TASLIM JAMAL

In my work there are depiction of human and animal forms inspired by my life in small village known for its tribal heritage and culture and enriched environment.having grown up among tribals and living closely with them, i was inspired to create something expressive and natural, therefore my art is a reflection of my heart and soul. 'my work is based on a semi-conscious state of mind, influenced by the simplicity of the environment around me. dreamland, the village series, many works in black and white, expresses the close contact of the tribals with animals, their tough life, hunger, poverty. the bright colours in some of the works strive to look at hope in the life of these tribals', i have not received any formal training in art, but is driven by my passion. Developing my own tools to create textures in my works, artwork is created by putting layers on a base of the painting and shadows to the works, bringing in the elements of nature, human forms, animals, birds and village architecture, and the forms are simple and freely drawn.
