L.A. based artist Maysha Mohamedi’s abstract paintings are flurries of colors, lines, and shapes imbued with energy, sensation, and meaningful intention. She often paints with her hands and talks about both visible and invisible marks that go into the making of her work. She discusses her process, her use of language, the movements and gestures that define her work, and how the making of abstraction can be a privilege. “It does feel like a privilege for a person of color to engage in creativity abstractly. It feels like a privilege to spend time thinking about our feelings and expressing them, and having emotions that are carried out in a visual way like that.” – Maysha MohamediHost and Producer: Lindsay Preston ZappasEngieneering: PJ ShahamatProduction assistance: Alitzah OrosTheme music: Joel P WestSponsored by: Paradise Framing and Parrasch Heijnen Gallery
