Amel’s intricate pen and ink drawings and pointillist paintings, majestic female figures redolent of ancient Nubian civilisation gaze impassively at the viewer, surrounded by plants, birds, books and trees.
Meticulous and methodical, Bashier applies thousands of small dots from the nib of her pen to create an imperceptibly solid composition.
Her artistic practice also offers her personal catharsis from the traumas endured by her homeland. A message of peace, reconciliation, and forgiveness for the crimes committed during Sudan’s bloody civil wars is conveyed throughout her work.
