Musika

The French Perspective: Contemporary Art from France
June 27 - July 17, 2009 Reception: Thursday July 2, 2009 6-8 PM

Press Release

Born out of a necessity to communicate complex thoughts and emotions, Musika's stylistically simple, but ideologically rich acrylics on canvas transform into meditative environments of deep contemplation. Here, in silence, in the immersive environment of fluid color and horizontal repetition, viewers surrender themselves completely to their emotions. Without a sound, Musika's meditative and calming abstract canvases adorned with horizontal washes of color, entrance the viewer with a harmony of hue.  Recalling the spiritually infused works of abstract expressionist color field painters Barnett Newman and Mark Rothko, Musika's deeply resonating canvases, with their awe inspiring color and human scale, portray the elements of the Sublime with an impressive sophistication. Each of the artist's paintings contains a delicate balance, her fluid surfaces displaying a dual sense of flatness and depth and this tension across the boundless canvases makes them all the more intriguing.

 

A self taught artist, Musika lives, works, and exhibits in France and abroad.


Artist Statement

My painting represents for me the means of liberation, the door of the transcendental experiences of life. Art is what best gives shape to an intense internal life, appealing to all of the range of the emotional plain. I am often reminded of a saying of Matisse: "One tone is just a color; two tones are a chord, which is life." Art can be the simple expression of a complex thought, an account of an internal adventure, expressing the movement, line, feature and expression of the beings of the world. In other words to distribute colors in the right way in a space is to distribute energies.
