Uzma sultan

LONDON
Uzma Sultan currently lives and works in London & Hamburg.

 Usually the paintings are made from photos which are taken on the camera phone, of whatever she likes.
They are much to do with exploiting the application of paint, therefore making the paintings equally, as much to do with the surfaces painted on. Whether it be aluminium, vinyl, fabric or just traditional canvas. It is to do and how paint behaves ‘The paintings are made on impulse using my intuition.
She is passionate about the process of painting in oils and the how paint behaves differently, on unconventional or abrasive surfaces’. 

 

Lived Experience

Uzma Sultan is an artist, mainly a painter that thrives on working or having a studio space in different locations.

The geographical location also informs my painting.
