Notes


Lifting Cloud - The mind acknowledges that it has answers and from these answers a new perspective emerges. 

Taisir is known to most as a textile artist who draws on her Sudanese and British roots to create a vision of colourful and abstract designs that are based on geometric interpretations of the rural Scottish landscape in which she lives. A keen interest in current affairs lends her work a compelling narrative which is the cornerstone of her work.

Her art collection (Inner Dialogue), however, is a departure from her precise and ordered textile medium to document the mind’s journey through life’s complexity on canvas. The collection begins at a point of frustration – the crimson hues with accentuated light burns brightly as the mind ‘fires on all cylinders’, unable to embrace the order and process that often accompanies Taisir’s designs. There is no ease visually or emotionally, it is building to a point of being overwhelmed.  The crimson anger leads to the dark blue-grey nadir, it is not calming but reflects the despair of a mind at the bottom of a vortex of repeating, never-ending internal conversations like a circular argument with the self that forms an intellectual and emotional perimeter. 

“Come with me on my never-ending journey of discovery as new influences inspire my art and designs; at time unpredictable, but always exciting and compelling”
