Meditations on Rumi
Think Round Fine Arts ONLINE is pleased to present an exhibition of soulful paintings by California-based artist Salma Arastu. The exhibition – Salma's second solo exhibition at Think Round Gallery – will be up for viewing and purchase until Tuesday, March 12th,2021
Salma Arastu’s work is lyrical, spiritual, figurative, and calligraphic. Her paintings reveal stories of unity in diversity, peace and joy, celebration of life, and women and dancing whirling dervishes. Whether in paintings or sculptures, the faceless figures represent the universal oneness of all humanity. Her calligraphic work attempts to celebrate the same message of oneness spread through verses in Arabic calligraphy and in the poetry of Rumi.
She celebrates energy and movement of line in her paintings, drawings, and sculptures. Since her exposure to Arabic calligraphy during her stay in the Middle East, her line has become more lyrical, melodious, and powerful.
