Purple, Scarlet, Viridian

Tarini aims to capture the ephemeral in her paintings, fleeting moments from everyday help shape her dreamlike polychromatic works. She spends days mapping out colours and creating elaborate palettes, this is a crucial ingredient of her work along with being a cathartic part of her process. Her tendency to romanticize reality allows her to create her whimsical and abstract landscapes. Colour is her ever evolving source of inspiration and the quotidian her unexpected muse. 

The process of painting for her is a deep exploration into the mesmeric language of abstraction which begins with elaborate plans, colour schemes and compositions.  While painting she relishes the struggle to maintain control while anticipating that beauty which comes from the impulsive, the moment in which a single stroke can be perfect in its imperfection. Tarini creates scenarios and problems which only, she can solve, she builds structures and simultaneously obliterates them, she intuitively layers paint exposing and covering marks. She enjoys the tactile nature of painting and the paradox of her art where impulse and control, calm and chaos go hand in hand.
