| Nasreen Begum uses highly stylised figures, drawn primarily in flat body tones and transparent earth colours, that appear frozen in time. Her search is both for the known and the unknown in nature, which take her to the tiniest leaf of grass, as well as to the dancing waves of the sea. Floral rhythms, feminine grace, pristine landscapes, autumnal beauty, and nature and its minute elements are featured in her paintings. She graduated from the Government Art College in Dhaka, and went on to receive her master’s degree in Printmaking from Baroda, India. Nasreen Begum teaches at the Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Dhaka. |
