Agora Gallery (New York) about me:
Contemporary artist Pouneh Asli works in a wide variety of media including oil, watercolor, acrylic, colored pencil, and pastel. In her work, we see the melding of a number of traditions including Abstraction, Realism, and Impressionism joined with her own somewhat diaristic approach to gestural painting. Metaphysical and organic symbolisms linger in Pouneh’s sensuous visual language like golden omens. Flowers, serpentine figures, and anthropomorphic forms rendered with a vibrant color palette and abundant sense of texture lend each composition its unique presence. Interested in the translation of emotionality onto the two-dimensional space of the canvas, her work is a fluid extension of her emotional life and serves a cathartic purpose for artist and audience both. Pouneh says that the work “is like meditation. It fills me with serenity and happiness.” She has worked as an artist for 30 years and shown her work in a number of high-profile exhibitions and galleries.
