Artist Statement

I believe "Without the ability to actualize an idea or concept, art wouldn't exist." My artwork is always fascinated by the colours and shapes in my surroundings. This fascination turns into inspiration. My art is a constant search for the best way to interpret my ideas about myself and my surroundings. I tell my story through the strokes of the paintbrush. I don't limit myself to any medium. Art is my life, my dream, and my passion, and like many others, I am motivated to live my dream and make my surroundings even more beautiful.

Self and Others presents a series of paintings by Hasura Akther Rumky that reflect on the relationship between personal identity and the surrounding social world. Drawing inspiration from everyday life, the artist explores subjects such as rickshaw pullers, Bauls, pigeons, portraits and self-portraits, capturing moments of empathy, memory and human connection.

Rumky’s engagement with rickshaw imagery highlights Dhaka’s vibrant yet gradually disappearing rickshaw art culture, while her portraits and self-portraits reveal an introspective search for self-understanding. Working with pastel, acrylic, charcoal and mixed media, the artist combines expressive forms and vibrant colours to transform familiar scenes into poetic reflections on life, identity and the shared experience of being human.
