To manifest beauty and make pure art
To manifest beauty and make pure art
In 2010 Shireen began to study Historical Oil Painting Techniques and Drawing Practice with the successful mid-career artist Charlie Sheard. It is important as an artist to master traditional techniques, to be able to create anything without technical limitation.
Shireen’s aim with her current work is to experiment with formulations and arrangements, to make all of the colours sing with as much intensity as possible. Shireen sees colour as something that is handled, colour that is dynamic, with each mark being a unique event never to be repeated.
Her work is spiritual, encompassing energy, bodily expression as well and the sensuality of the paint as a material, creating paintings of pure abstraction.
Shireen Mussa was born in Auckland New Zealand in 1979. She spent her early childhood there before moving to Australia with her family in 1983. Shireen was always interested in art from an early age and continued this passion during her schooling. She attended Killara High School, and studied art through to year 12.
