Description from the seller
Mixed media art piece on a beautiful piece of wood, directly from the artist's studio. With mounting system, ready to hang!
Mixed and artisanal technique (based on own photo work) on wood. The edition and year of production are listed on the CoA and on the back of the artwork.
Materials used include: wood, photo, acrylic paint and varnish (glossy).
If two or more works are purchased in the same auction, you pay shipping costs only once.
Rouzbeh Tahmassian, established visual artist from Rotterdam. His work has been sold and exhibited worldwide for over 15 years. The unique combination of techniques and materials and expressive images make his work very popular.
With a strong presence and success on leading online platforms and galleries, the demand for his work has grown enormously in recent years. His work is mystical and stimulates the viewer's imagination. His art is continuously in motion and is not limited to figurative, but also abstract, portraiture and sculptures are part of his oeuvre.
As the artist himself describes: “I use many different materials such as wood, paint, (bee) wax, sanguis, gold and silver, cotton and various resins. In advance the frames are laid out, but the creative process only begins after the first touch is laid. Here I let my feelings guide me. There are then no limits to what I can do. I am always looking for a new effect, a new image, seeking the unknown. I feel that there is always more to discover.”
Seller's Story
My work is created amidst emotions. I follow my feelings about how the process is progressing and what materials the artwork needs. Throughout this, the science and precision within me are constantly stirred. In my profession as a hospital pharmacist, it requires precision and accuracy. In recent years, I have increasingly fused my work as a pharmacist and a visual artist. I use chemical compounds and create my own perfectly orchestrated combination of Damar resin and beeswax, for example. To influence the viscosity of my paint and wax, I use chemicals like sorbitol and glycerol, and I incorporate burnt pages from pharmaceutical books into my artworks. I am intensely drawn to the unknown: an unknown effect, an unknown material, and an unknown twist of work. It is what motivates me to create new work in this epic battle between the flow of feelings and the science of pharmacy.
Rouzbeh Tahmassian is an established multi-disciplinary artist with international exposure. His pieces combine photographs manipulated with various mixed-media techniques on beautiful pieces of wood. Each work is unique and can involve a range of materials including acrylics, oils, pastel, watercolors, beeswax, sanguis, copper, wood, blood, and more. His pieces are personal and expressive with a hint of nostalgia.
