Tamina Amadyar

Born in Kabul, 1989 and lives in Berlin, Germany

Tamina Amadyar grew up in Germany from the age of five and is a graduate of the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. Her autobiographically inspired paintings engender a specific type of cultural transfer while also combining figuration and abstraction with a rarely seen lightness and concision.
Amadyar’s work proceeds from spaces, or rather her memories of spaces. These usually hark back to her childhood in Afghanistan, or, if they are more recent, are overlaid with patterns of perception that correspond to that time.
Her origins are clearly reflected in the coloration and particular lighting that are intrinsic to her painting. At the same time, though, the tradition of Western painting—in the shape of various twentieth-century positions and tendencies—also makes its presence felt in Amadyar’s images.
