About The Artwork
Wasserman grew up in Northern Europe, and has always been fascinated with migrating birds, especially with their “training flights” before before they leave part of the world in the fall. From her early childhood she believed that birds fly to Africa for winter. In 2014 life took her to South Africa, and of course there were birds there. At that point her brain exclaimed: these are the same birds that travel to Northern Europe for the summer! Suddenly she saw the process of bird migration from African from “opposite” point of view. That felt strange, meaningful and existential. The painting was born. This piece does not require framing. It has painted edges that are a part of the work.

« 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.
