Wishful Thinking by Amira Rahim - Painting

Amira D. Rahim is a versatile painter who works primarily in acrylics and mixed media. Playing with colour and texture on paper and canvas, she works interchangeably between abstract and figurative, often meeting somewhere in the middle. Her abstracts, meticulous in their use of colour and pattern, seems at first glance to be heavily influenced by late abstract expressionism. However, a deeper understanding of Amira’s background and inspirations reveal an artist who has successfully blended her passion, intellectual rigor, and technique to create a fresh, original body of work.
