Yuriy Ibragimov’s layered images have a rare quality: they simultaneously capture both the complexity and the clarity of life. The wrought quality of Ibragimov’s encaustic and oil processes lends itself to a turbid visual experience and, from a distance, his images seem obscured and abstracted. In actuality, Ibragimov’s paintings intimately and delicately render specific moments. They evoke the distinct characteristics of an experience, whether capturing a woman’s look of surprise or the wind’s affect on a willowy tree. Because of the coexisting roughness and lucidity, Ibragimov’s paintings are movingly honest, embodying both the indecipherability and the transparency of daily experience.
Originally from Uzbekistan, Ibragimov studied at the Academy of Art in St. Petersburg and later at the Tashkent Institute of Fine Art in Uzbekistan. He has exhibited extensively in both Uzbekistan and New York and his work has been collected by the State Museum of Arts in Tashkent.
