STORYTELLING

It makes many wonder — what made Preema’s storytelling so chaotically harmoniously multi-narrative. Postmodern pastiche imageries where various disciplines like science and arts are juxtaposed symbolically in the series entitled ‘Storytelling’. Nazia Andaleeb Preema ends this chapter with such a vision that has the might to make the viewers visionary.

Through this series Preema’s artworks act against binary views of storytelling to promote unbiased attitude in narration. The paintings, whether on mixed media on canvas or oil on canvas, reflect multiple visions in colors, moods, tones, themes,-at-times paradoxical too. Even ‘Science and Women’ captures an orbit-like scenario establishing human and the earth as equal parts of each other, eco-critically speaking.

Thus, Preema’s ventures starting from eyes journey beyond the earth, having a global vision based on the transformation the society has undergone. Thereby, her aesthetic productions tell tales to make viewers’ vision visionary beyond the circle, beyond globe. Preema’s storytelling makes a bridge between planetary and spiritual lives, through her stroke of aesthetics.
