Fifth Season: Zaman Jassim
March 10 - April 10, 2010
 

Courtyard Gallery showcased the works of Saudi artist Zaman Jassim.

“Fifth Season” is perhaps the best way to describe a collection of diverse stages and experiences of Zaman Jassim’s art. It represents a mix between the white which dominates the artworks’ details and the spaces of color which vary from warm to fiery. It is also about the way different materials work together to create a single spirit and purpose to the artwork, which Jassim had been working on for years.

The experiences of Zaman Jassim are derived from cultural heritage, yet, with an untraditional and non-imitating modern flair.

Heritage is present in a different form. The remnants of the past are not absent from his work, albeit vanishing in some ways as he goes about searching for the missing.

The Arabic letter is present in a different way. It doesn’t have a certain meaning, yet reflects a state of artistic harmony like a spirit floating in space.”
