Description from the seller

Original and highly unique artwork, straight from the artist's studio! Reputable artist with (international) sales and exhibitions.

Mixed and artisanal technique (based on his own photography) on sustainable wood. The photo is affixed to the wood and accentuated with acrylic paint. Then damar resin and light yellow beeswax are applied and burned with an original and authentic developed technique. This makes the artwork very rich in texture with numerous predominantly vertical lines (due to the resin/wax burning process).

Materials used include: wood, photograph, filler, acrylic paint, damar resin, light-yellow beeswax and varnish (glossy).

Display conditions: never outdoors, in direct sunlight or in damp spaces.

The top layer of the artwork consists of a special varnish that protects against dust. The back is signed by the artist. Also supplied with a certificate of authenticity. The artwork is carefully and professionally packed and insured for shipping. The Track & Trace code allows the package to be followed up to your door.

When purchasing two or more works in the same auction, you pay shipping only once.

Rouzbeh Tahmassian, established visual artist from Rotterdam. His work has been sold and exhibited worldwide for more than 15 years. The unique combination of techniques and materials and expressive imagery make his work very popular.

With a strong presence and success on leading online platforms and galleries, demand for his work has grown enormously in recent years. His work is mysterious and stimulates the viewer's imagination. His art is continually in motion and is not limited to figurative; abstract, portraiture, and sculptures are also part of his oeuvre.

As the artist himself describes: “I use many different materials such as wood, paint, (bees)wax, sanguis, gold and silver, cotton and several types of resins. The guidelines are set in advance, but the creative process only begins once the first hand is laid on it. Here I let my feelings guide me. There are then no limits to what I can do. I am always seeking a new effect, a new image, in search of the unknown. I feel 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.
