JAPANESE PROVERB

english_sunset-08.jpg

Purple, blue, muted sky. 
Comforting and soft with mysterious, beautiful presence.
Above golden fields of grain,
turning into a glowing peachy orange during sunset
for just one precious minute.
Then, on a cloudy day,
looking like wet sand
with sparks of cotton coloured light.

Inspired by the color palette of
summer sunsets in England

"May every sunrise hold more promise

and every sunset hold more peace." 

 

~ Umair Siddiqui ~

For a soothing, natural home
that feels like an extension of yourself and
where your shoulders will naturally drop.

Painted with self-foraged earth pigments
and natural chalk paint on European linen and
organic cotton.

With nature and for nature - as sustainable as possible.

WHAT COLLECTORS SAY:

"When I look at the sky, I become calmer, can breathe deeply and feel connected to something bigger. When I come into contact with your paintings, I feel something similar, there are no more thoughts,

I feel peace and calm within myself. Thank you very much for your loving nature and your

wonderful art!"

紙に地球

Kami ni chikyū

EARTH ON PAPER

Mesmerizing textures,
created by the pigments of our planet.

Dried flowers, forever capturing the beauty
of a blooming plant in stillness. 

Dark, walnut coloured, wooden frames,
creating a window for nature's artistry.

"The earth pigment textures make me think of the glinstering pattern the sun creates on the sandy ground of a clear ocean."

Inspired by the Japanese philosophies of wabi-sabi & shibui.

“If an object or expression can bring about, within us, a sense of serene melancholy and a spiritual longing, then that object could be said to be wabi-sabi.”*


 

"If a fish is kind to the water,
the water will be kind to the fish."


JAPANESE PROVERB


This collection of artworks is 100% natural and vegan.
Just earth pigments and soy milk on paper. And for the collages: coffee infused sheets of bacterial cellulose, dried flowers and cotton thread.

Pure & Beautiful.

"The shibui aesthetic opens our eyes to the beauty of real life – the every day miracles. Art and design termed shibui merges nature with day to day living.

For example; the uneven texture of a tea bowl, the solitary blossom in a flower arrangement. Natural elements help to connect and re-align us with nature on a subconscious level. [...]

This compels us to slow down and look at the ordinary again, with new eyes. Through observation, details such a the pattern of a leaf, the line of a stem, reveal meaning." **

Fall To Rise
Collection

For years I have been collecting this beautiful material that nature gives us as a gift: birch tree bark.
Now a whole collection of unique collages has been created with this beautiful material in the leading role.

'Fall to Rise' is about the fact that 'falling' is part of our lives and that sometimes it is precisely the fall that brings us to a higher and brighter version of ourselves. Just like the birch tree sheds pieces of bark in order to grow into a more beautiful, larger tree.​​​​​​​​

I find this a hopeful and soothing thought.

When I wrote the titles of the works, I noticed that they are connected to each other just like the sentences of a poem. Once I had the whole poem, I felt the need to sing it.

I hope you enjoy the song as you view the works.
