Mindful Transformations

Hisba's exhibition has now finished. See below for a walk through and Hisba’s artist talk.

The Free Space Project is pleased to support an online virtual exhibition by artist Hisba Brimah.

Hisba is passionate about abstract art and is continually finding new ways to experiment with shapes and materials. Architecture, art history, textiles, and different cultures are among the most important themes in her art and these are continually referred to in her sketchbooks and outcomes.

Her work includes geometric pieces based on combinations of triangles or of quadrilaterals, and pieces with fluid lines referencing Japanese woodblock prints. Recently she has created art which explores the dynamic, rhythmic application of paint to a surface, inspired by the work of Jackson Pollock. She has also drawn on the work of Bryce Marden to create paintings of curvilinear, string like structures, which, while abstract, are evocative of organic forms in the natural world.

This was the first in the Free Space Project’s commissions for artists to reimagine works into our virtual exhibition space whilst access to our building (Kentish Town Health Centre) is limited due to the coronavirus.

Artist talk: Jennifer Gilbert & Hisba Brimah.
