Vivid Vision

Ikram Zakarya | A 32-year-old self-taught artist and the soul behind Vivid Vision.

“ My paintings are my voice. They speak truths I cannot utter. If I were to explain them, they would lose the quiet power they carry. Through painting, I find a way to release the weight of memories and thoughts that have lingered within me, some for a lifetime.

I paint to give shape to the longing to write endlessly, to find stillness in expression. My work is intentionally minimal. I believe simplicity allows space for meaning to breathe and for each piece to fulfill its purpose”

The paintings are a mix of contemporary, conceptual and figurative vivid images and bold brushstroke. They express emotions, philosophical thoughts and/or psychological concepts with the aim of provoking a debate.
