"Nature never did betray the heart that loved her." William Wordsworth

‘The artist takes her inspiration from the poet Rainer Maria Rilke and the paintings which abound in symbolism and metaphor deal with the numinous world.
The paintings are like windows of realization into the eternal tussle that exists between man and nature. They have a sense of reconciliation within this dilemma, a sense of peace and freedom and depicts Rilke’s belief in the coexistence of the material and spiritual realms, where human beings are only spectators of life, grasping its beauties momentarily only to lose them again.’ Ameena Hussein
