Tranquil Essence invites audiences to embark on an intimate journey through Jaleela’s artworks, offering a serene exploration into the aesthetic and emotional richness inspired by the beauty of nature - including oceanic corals and terrestrial bamboos - and the elegance of Islamic calligraphy.
As a self-taught artist, Jaleela Niaz has cultivated a unique artistic style, characterised by the layering of intricate patterns and motifs in metallic hues of gold and silver against vibrant and intensely coloured acrylic paint backgrounds. Her signature artistry creates a dynamic interplay between colour and texture, revealing depth and movement, and bringing the subject matter to life. Jaleela draws inspiration from her keen observation of the natural world. Her works, while resonant with realism, are not replications or mimicking of real-life imageries. Instead, these compelling works serve as embodiments of her reflections on life, nature, and human emotion.
