Syeda Zainab Taj

I don’t confine myself to a single subject in my artwork; instead, I embrace change, allowing my thoughts, observations, and mood to guide my creative process. After an eight-year hiatus, I am excited to showcase my work in a gallery, centering on a simple yet elegant theme: horses. Inspired by their free spirit, strength, boundless energy, and natural grace, I aim to capture the essence of these magnificent creatures. As the saying goes, “A horse is poetry in motion."

My canvases predominantly feature varying tones of a single color, painted in different styles to portray the horses’ motion and enchanting charm. My brushstrokes range from bold to delicate, reflecting my emotions in the moment, as the colors communicate meaning on their own. I firmly believe that beauty lies in the eye of the beholder, and art should always invite interpretation. Therefore, I leave my paintings open for viewers to create their own perceptions, rather than attempting to dictate their meaning.
