The Essence of Things

Shizico's latest series explores the simple pleasure of colours and the simplicity of forms around her life. The project goes in two directions; 
one is reimagining the colours of objects and landscape around her, and the other is to document moments of contentment, 
finding pockets of silent joy in day-to-day living with the simple act of drawing in purer forms. 
Both ways are attempts to find new visual languages in her artmaking after years of dark period in her personal life.

Summer Bloom Series 2022

In Autumn 2017, Shizico lost her beloved dog-son Favor to Wobbler Syndrome after four years of battle with this neurology disease.
Constant Gardener is an ongoing project in memory of Favor. In 2015, Shizico started gardening; she took it as a project to make a garden for Favor to recover. After Favor died, this garden project continued as Favor Memorial Garden in memory of his precious presence. (2015- 2022 ongoing)
Alongside the gardening, Shizico started a series of drawings and plain air paintings in this Memorial garden, trying to keep the blooms and seasons frozen in time. This painting is one of the Summer Bloom series Shizico started in 2022.

Summer Bloom No6 2022

"Having a cigarette is what he loved to do,  in our garden then, in our imaginary space now, and in my artwork...that is how I kept him alive. "
Shizico lost her beloved years ago, and grief has become a part of her. Through art, she keeps the connection between two souls, and through art, the soul of her beloved one would never be far, just a brush away.
