Description
This painting is my endeavour to convey the beauty and magic of a moment in which reality merges with dreams. I have depicted a glade strewn with pearls that sparkle, reflecting the azure colour of incredible trees. These trees, filled with magical light, seem alive and mysterious, as if they belong to another world. In the distance, the light flickers, beckoning with its tranquility and bliss, creating an atmosphere of peace and harmony.
In the foreground, the golden grass gently sways as if cherishing precious pearls, and this movement gives the painting lightness and airiness. All together – this is a place that goes beyond the limits of everyday life, into the world of fantasies and dreams, where there is neither anxiety nor suffering, but only silence and eternal tranquillity
Fatimie Ashyrova is a self-taught artist born in Uzbekistan in 1979. Although her passion for art began as a child, life led her down other paths until she returned to painting with a deep devotion at the age of 37.
Fatimie now lives in Ireland, after being forced to move due to the turbulent situation in the country, and began her artistic journey from scratch, independently studying and mastering the techniques of working with oil, watercolour and acrylics.
Her work combines realism, symbolic ornament and textural abstraction. Inspired by the traditions of her homeland, she often replaces human figures with symbolic floral forms in keeping with Islamic aesthetics, telling stories of culture, identity and resilience.
In her recent abstract series, she applies layered, textured brushstrokes, creating serene, imaginary worlds inspired by the Quranic vision of Paradise, and creates abstract floral paintings.
Fatimie’s art invites viewers to experience peace, spiritual reflection and quiet beauty found in both memory and imagination.
