Join the Arts Council for the Gallery Opening of Now and Then - Amazigh Resurgence by Alia Bensliman.Bensliman’s artwork is contemporary art drawing that reflects her view of life and her sentiments about the current state of our society, socio political issues, taboos, religion, relationships, health, and human rights. It is also a depiction of her past experiences and how they have influenced her.
Bensliman’s artwork is also a sort of diary of her everyday life. Bensliman likes to use a combination of intricate lines, shapes and repetitive patterns that she usually enhances with colors, ink, gold and silver paint and watercolors to create the desired textures and intensity mostly on Arches paper.
Bensliman has been interested and attracted to art and drawing since her early childhood. She grew up in Tunisia, North Africa. Tunisia is at a crossroad of eastern and ancient art and cultures on one hand and western contemporary art on the other. Her art reflects a fusion of east and west with a penchant for North African and Amazigh Art.
Bensliman’s goal, through her work, is to intrigue, engage and provoke thought and reflection from the viewers. The intricate level of detail in each piece allows the viewer to discover more details and make new interpretations each time they view the work.
Free and open to all!
