In her aesthetic ambition to interpret her ideas via canvas and bronze, multi-disciplinary artist, Lila Hamdan has reached a distinction worthy of her artistic vision. Honoring her works in an upcoming exhibition, Saphira Ventura Gallery together with the support of the New York International Contemporary Art Society (NYICAS), showcases the artist’s collection of paintings focusing on her career as a painter and the various techniques she applied herself to. The exhibition is curated by Alcinda Saphira.
When it comes to painting, multi-disciplinary painter and sculptor, Lila Hamdan started dedication herself to it full time since 2008, since then the painter has explored a variety of themes and took on different influences. Her work has similarities with the expressionist movement, a personal and intuitive art movement where the artist’s inner vision predominated and where the freedom of expression takes precedence. “I don’t want anyone who observes my art to come with a conception, a title or framing it in a style.” observes the artist, “I like the indefinite, the discovery, and in my works I seek to search for varied forms of expression, even maintaining a certain plastic unity”. Since her launch into the artworld, Hamdan has had the opportunities to exhibit in Helsinki, Miami, Riode Janerio, Paris and New York. Her creations in acrylic on canvas, in addition to sculptures in bronze and resin, are the result of continuous work of artistic investigation, in her Dimensions, Hamdan presents the world as a mirror, where planes of “light and non-light”, in a strong signature cites the human from the philosophical perspective that our attitudes are not a being, but an eternal becoming, infinitely, outside and inside our existence.
