“In Motion” by Racha Kuzbari Khoja @ Nabad Art Gallery<\/strong>
\n Opening : Thursday, March 23 at 6:30 PM – 9 PM
\nExhibition lasts from 23 MARCH – 19 APRIL 2017<\/strong>
\nRacha sees her work as a reflection on physical, mental and spiritual movement, without which the universe would lose its dynamic balance. She celebrates motion by taking the viewer on a journey within the work. Her birds appear to glide and sweep across the canvas in a continuous flow of vibrant colours and patterns of energy, balancing between the figurative and the abstract, between presence and absence. In a sense, Racha\u2019s canvases are a dynamic extension of her psyche. \u201cMy work,\u201d she says, \u201cmirrors my eternal struggle to find balance\u2026to live is to keep moving.\u201d
\nBorn in Damascus, Syrian-Canadian artist Racha Kuzbari Khoja lived in various parts of the world as the daughter of an ambassador.
