ZARAH CASSIM

ZARAH CASSIM, Fluster III

Oil on canvas, 80 x 60 cm

Zarah Cassim is an artist concerned with notions of perception. She uses themediums of painting, photography and sculpture to affect a viewer’s encounter with spatial illusion and reflect the creative filter through which she views the world.

Woven into the theme of unveiling the artifice of reality, is a concern with natural forms and spaces. It is in natural forms that she finds the vehicle for a sense of disorientation: the reflection of a chaotic or absurd world, which marks a breaking point for the human condition. Each work is a personal reflection for Cassim: a sensitive, romantic memory.
