Artist Statement

Meher Soni’s paintings are abstract self-portraits and landscapes that express the simultaneous existence of luminosity and darkness. The colors create a mystic space based on the emotions she feels while creating them. There is a profound sense of freedom in the process of  creating to show how struggles can be transformed into hope. The paintings represent revealing one’s true self and being able to see obstacles as a source of growth. Appreciation of nature, the universe, color theory and interconnectedness of life are also influences in the work. Painting is a spiritual journey that allows one to connect with their higher selves and unites the World.
