| “Any thing worked in frenzy was a work of beauty. It may be the result of a clumsy attempt, but it is unique and is a total reflection of one’s unique self.” ---------Hiroshi Teshigawara |
Painting for me is the result of discerning the necessity and unnecessity, transformation of the unconsciousness to the consciousness. I am strongly attracted by the beauty and the power of the fragility in this transient world. When I paint, I try to forget the every structures or what I have learnt. I believe every painting have to be the result of pursuing a buoyant expression without compromising, without being driven by emotion, which is my never ending goal. |

She gets her inspiration from life experiences and feelings. Originality and creativity are the two fundamental essences of her art. “My work begin with creating the totally chaos on canvas. I let any themes or accidents happen and go. As I continue this process, osmotically imagery begins to emerge. My painting is a result of many layers of thoughts and feelings. For me, painting process is like ‘tuning’ to voices to be heard. I take inspiration from everyday life, things, relationships, beings around me. I observe them and pass them on in my form.” Rin has created poster designs for theater troupes, card and print designs for Charities ( M.S.F., Rashid Paediatric Therapy Centre, Dubai Eco), magazine illustrations, mural paintings( shopping malls, hotels, restaurants).
