“[Seemeen Hashem] transforms discarded musical instruments into fragmented sculptural forms that summon their own silent symphony. Her work is reminiscent of Picasso’s guitar paintings and constructions – Seemeen is a mixed media artist who was born in Pakistan and later moved to the D.C. area. She received a BFA from the Corcoran College of Art and Design and currently works as a graphic designer.”

Exploring themes that question traditional artistic conventions and encourage the viewer to interpret art through “seeing” is the primary goal of abstract art. Indeed, abstract art usually prompts the question, “What does it all mean?” Seemeen’s marvelous work sidesteps this question, though, and invites you to feel and experience musical memories and to, of course, see more of her creations.

A long-time friend, Seemeen and I have known each other for over 20 years and have occasionally worked together on multi-media projects. So, attending this opening earlier this month and seeing her extraordinary work on display was wonderfully gratifying. ABSTRACTED is on display through March 25th but if you can’t make it, I encourage you to check out her website: www.aqueoustudio.com. She may be contacted at seemeen@aqueoustudio.com
Today I decided to go out of my comfort zone and do some abstract stuff! Might make a great texture for someone so I didn't put a logo on it just in case! :)
