Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This captivating artwork comprises a grid of vibrant yellow squares, creating a dynamic and visually striking composition. The precise grid structure and the repetition of the square motif suggest a focus on geometric abstraction and the exploration of form and color. The overall composition has a sense of balance and symmetry, with the central yellow shape resembling an abstract representation of a sun or other celestial body. The artist's use of a limited color palette and minimalist approach emphasizes the formal qualities of the artwork, inviting the viewer to engage with the interplay of light and shadow within the grid. This piece likely reflects the artist's interest in exploring the visual language of modernism and the potential for simplicity to convey powerful emotional resonance. ...

Rana Begum
Artist
Rana Begum
B.1977, British

Rana Begum plays with colour, geometry and the capabilities of light. Although she often employs hard, industrial materials such as concrete, steel and aluminium, Begum’s works often feel unshackled and weightless, imbuing light with a solid materiality. Hers is a practice concerned with exploring changing perceptions caused by altering perspectives: the transience with which light falls onto objects, constantly casting fugitive shadows that hold different personas, the inconsistency with which colours refract light, and how light can effectively mix and bleed colours into one another. Begum’s artworks are influenced by minimalism and constructivism, specifically artists like Anni Albers and Agnes Martin, as well as memories of the Islamic architecture of her homeland. ...
