Description
This work was the beginning of the paintings I was inspired by the descriptions of Paradise landscapes in the Quran.
Paradise. What it is like, everyone imagines it differently, but however we imagine it, it is certainly not what the Creator created it to be. We are limited by the Almighty and cannot imagine these flavours of Paradise.The Quran talks a lot about the atmosphere of Paradise (Jannat).
The Quran speaks a lot about the atmosphere of Paradise (Jannat).
This is my perception, or rather, part of it, I feel that this place is exactly in such shades in my feelings it is such a place where you do not feel hard, and you do not think about troubles and sufferings, because they are not in this place.
I’m sharing with you a small part of what I have.
Fatimie was born in Uzbekistan in 1979 and developed a passion for art early in life. Her first exhibition took place during her school years, initiated by her art teacher after she moved to Crimea in 1991. However, life led her in a different direction—after finishing school, she began working, got married, and dedicated herself to her family.
At 37, when her youngest son turned four, she felt an undeniable urge to return to art. She taught herself through online tutorials, articles, and continuous experimentation. Her first project was a drawing of a birch grove, followed by an oil painting of a still life. This rekindled passion led her to create numerous works, establish an Instagram presence, and start selling her paintings.
In 2022, she and her family moved to Ireland, where she continues to develop her artistic practice. Initially focused on classical painting, she explored realism through landscapes and still lifes. Over time, she experimented with various styles and techniques, driven by a deep connection to her cultural heritage.
As a member of a nationality that has endured challenges yet preserved its traditions, she sees her art as a means of cultural storytelling. This is especially evident in her works featuring national ornaments, which symbolize the traditions and identity of her people.
Her artistic practice centers on exploring ethno-style, seeking universal symbols that resonate across cultures. Recently, she has been drawn to depicting visionary worlds—idealized, serene atmospheres inspired by Quranic descriptions of Paradise. These dreamlike landscapes add a spiritual and philosophical depth to her work, inviting viewers into realms of harmony and tranquility.
