This is a mixed media piece. Has a feel of graffiti. Inspired by Tom Wait's song RAIN DOGS, by city-life, masks, ancestors and the unknown that is everywhere. The artist started this painting as an "action painting performance" during one of the BAC Open Studio events. The first push was a few Hollywood out-take photos. They attracted the artist because of the feel of being temporary, taken casually, in passing. They reflected the fleeting moment, the passing of time, of the happenings that really matter for a moment, and then they don't. These first images were painted over later. The piece was cut down and then "replanted" onto a bigger "field". The big mask-like head of the dog appeared at a later stage and that was the element that organized the earlier fractured composition. And yes, the artist really loves Tom Waits and listened to his record RAIN DOGS while working on this painting.

« Art making is an asynchronous diary of daily events. The process is extreme and the result is surprising. » Tamara Wasserman is an artist based in the United States whose paintings have been featured in solo and group exhibitions nationally. She describes her most recent works as resulting from the fusion of observation with emotion. Omitting the details of faithful observation, Wasserman concentrates on the essentials, allowing "intense emotion to find its free abstracted expression". She creates using oils, acrylics, oil pastels, and charcoal on canvas or wood. Tamara was born in Riga, Latvia, and raised in Israel where she graduated from the Bezalel Art Academy in Jerusalem. Tamara is a visual artist, performer and writer. Her work is in private collections in the US, Israel, Switzerland and England. Tamara has exhibited in galleries of New York City, Chicago, Boston, Tel-Aviv, and Ann Arbor, Michigan. Tamara’s studio is at Bridgeport Art Center in Chicago. Wasserman's artistic family includes: Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Paul Gauguin, and Edvard Munch. Her work is deeply influenced by early Surrealism and DaDa.
