Artist Statement for Maha Abu Ghoush

|
|
In my work I always emphasize on the color as a significant and unifying element. It follows mainly two directions: In the first, I move into unfettered areas of fervent intensity, characterized by its expressionistic vigor through the application of thick coats of paints of various material (gouache, fingerpaint, acrylic, and oil colors) on highly textured surfaces, which I then rework partially or completely with oil pastel, producing a remarkable effect and displaying the variations of color, form, line, and movement.
In the second, which involves drawings using watercolors, pastel and pen, I create a mystical, fanciful and gothic world of trees and foliage. A world that's at once eerie and alluring. A world that exists only in one's imagination.
