Painting is Chamma’s way to explore the impressions and the sensations developed by the perceptions in everyday life. Her work is formed entirely by small motifs drawn in slow movements, directed by the rhythm of the breathing. For her, exploration of infinitely small has the power to provide the intimacy of beings and things and to awake the earlier dreams of the joy of intimacy.

RÊVE, 2020, (65cm x 65cm ), Acrylic on Canvas - £690

 This piece was created following a dream that I did, that was associated with memories traced to childhood. Its emotions were too large and remained in me a long time after. Dreams are an expression of emotional self state and are usually associated with unconscious memories; the core of every dream is emotion. To create this painting, I followed my feelings and I immersed in them fully to represent an image that depicts their magnitude.
