Profile of Gila Paris


Gila Paris

The creative process is a kind of dialogue between myself and the medium. Having worked for years in the language & communication field as well as in the management, there was a moment in my time in Chicago, language changed into visual language. I am happy that I could participate years ago in one of the first classes “The digital tool for artists” at the SAIC (School of the Art Institute Chicago) to get connected to digital art. The combination of several art techniques - the traditional ones (in particular drawing and painting) and the digital tool - became my medium. My areas of interest are the creation and exploration of image variations, new dimensions thru underlying structures, shapes and pattern, visual language. So it is evident that I chose the digital tool for my work. In my photographic work I am fascinated by architecture giving me a base for my structures and patterns, by graffiti living a culture or counter-culture movement full of creativity and technicity. In my photographic work of life & people I am embedding my photos in abstract painting, so I hope you perceive it differently. The ordinary scene becomes extraordinary, a message is sent. Color & composition are critical. It's about my focus on our environment. My personal engagement in art is to make our environment visible.

  • Lovely...
    don't have time to post to CultureInside, but on my site, here is a different take on "Times Square" (it is "Times Square", isn't it)?

  • Eine Arbeit, die auch formal durch die sensible Verbindung von Malerei und Fotografie überzeugt. Schön die diagonalen Schatten die ins Bild führen.

  • love your new paintings, Hakan. Hope i can see them in the Carrousel du Louvre Salon 2007 in December in Paris. I have to see your art live!

  • Fantastic compositions - fragments, letters, surfaces interweaving - I want to enter this world, I am permanently searching and reading, discovering in your pictures ... would like to see much more ...

  • Love the style, the color work - all. A really good expression.

  • I like especially laguna de bay which is minimizing all : the picture itself, the colors, but underlining the contrasts and the focus. Photography becomes drawing - really a great work!

  • J'aime tellement cette galerie - jeu de mains - les regards - la diversité d'expressions - un petit moment attrapé !

    I love so much this gallery - Jeu de mains - the look - the diversity of expressions - a short moment catched!

  • Hi, Vesna, I love your Ghertrude, great!
     
    gila - 2/16/2008 7:25:06 AM

  • I like especially the Tchetchen - the colors composition and the mix of the tchetchen with the environment around - great.
    J'aime surtout l'image Tchetchen - la composition des couleurs et le mixage du personnage et de l'environnement autour de lui - magnifique.
