About the Artist
"It is only with the heart one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye". This quote by the French Novelist Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in "The Little Prince" examples Poline's purpose to reveal inner meaning through color and texture on canvas. The strength of her work stems from the drive to express emotions that cannot be pinned down in to words. As a child, growing up in the rich cultural heritage of Iran, the beauty of music, paintings, poetry and nature moved and inspired her to explore a medium for self-exploration and expression. Poline is on a life's journey to bring the magnificence of nature in synergy with the freedom of the soul and the glory of being. Her works reflect a world filed with vivid, beautiful colors, which beckoning the viewer on a powerful visual and emotional journey. She has a storyteller's ability to bring feelings and dreams in to life.
As a student of Rumi, the great Persian poet and philosopher, She is motivated to look beyond the ordinary for mystic and symbolic meanings. Through the lens of her paintbrush, she seeks unity of man with nature. The result is the familiar, yet abstracted reality, formed with dreamlike sensation of human emotion.
Artist Statement
My mission as an artist is to take my audience from the real world into a dream-like place, filled with happiness and joy; there are enough artists in this world who want to educate their audience on all the injustices and atrocities that happen in our world. I leave that objective to them! I like to remind my audience of their own Magnificent Self that lives within them.
We all came from light and all the good that is within us, has perhaps been jaded with the tragedies of this world. Often we find ourselves forgetting our inner glory of human beings. My mission is to remind my viewers of what and who we really are, that the beauty of nature can once again take us to the very fabric of life and what we are all made of. I cannot separate human emotions from nature, nor, do I see art, without nature. Magic has never disappeared from the earth.
The people of the earth just forgot what magic is.The entire earth holds such magic that if we really spent time relearning the ways of our ancestors we would know that WE ARE ONE.
