Curriculum Vitae of Shamim Nouri
In this latest body of work Shamim Nouri continues his
exploration of the non-objective seducing the viewer with his richly
layered surface which he methodically builds up and peels away to both
reveal and conceal the surface below.







These paintings are far more about
process than they are about a quantifiable subject and are open to the
viewers own interpretation based upon their reaction and ultimate
relationship to each work. They are reminiscent of an archaeological dig
where time and history remain suspended between the layers of what has
come before and what followed after. The artist as archaeologist reveals
these elements creating a dialogue between the materials used and how
they interact and relate with each other. In doing so, Shamim creates
works which are visually seductive, heavily textured and beyond any
traditional definition — here the artwork speaks to us using its own
language which is both experiential and individual. 



Shamim was
born in Vancouver and received his visual arts training from the
Vancouver Film School and Langara College. Currently living in
Penticton, Shamim is fast gaining recognition for his imaginative use of
materials and his wonderfully atmospheric paintings.
