"Woman in Red Turban” Oil Painting 63" x 47" inch by Katherine Bakhoum Tisné
By Katherine Bakhoum-Tisné
Located in Culver City, CA
"Woman in Red Turban” Oil Painting 63" x 47" inch by Katherine Bakhoum Tisné
Pastel on paper. Framed.
Katherine Bakhoum represents art that has been forgotten for a long while. She draws upon the concept and the subject of the orientalism and the enchantment of that period. Through her work we can feel the researches she has done to reveal her Egyptian origins and the magic and power of the bygone times. Katherine Bakhoum has succeeded in imprinting her own stamp to evoke a new world full of charm, nostalgia and magic that is deeply implanted in her canvas. Her power dwells in creating her own style of contemporary expressionism building upon the old orientalism.
Katherine Bakhoum’s art comes up out of an Egyptian childhood and from the distance of a life spent in France. What is left unsaid is as important as what is shown. Decorative yes, as in old orientalism, when everything was texture and what wasn’t texture was veiled, a reincarnation of old spirits, dervishes, orientalist motifs and the stuff of a once powerful civilization, the better to suggest it all might just come to life again.
The choice of ancient subject matters, the echo of orientalist pieces in the collages, like the echo of the appeal of ancient gestures, of foreign lands, and domestic tapestries, all this weaves up out of Katherine Bakhoum’s creations. Sometimes we only have the line of a horizon on which to hang our imagination, sometimes we only have the trace of a profile in the shadows. What we always have is a persistent belief in beauty.
Where there is beauty, there is hope. Katherine Bakhoum has abandoned neither.

Budding Bonds - Contemporary Figurative Childhood Painting
Located in Boston, MA
Budding Bonds
16.0 x 20.0 x 1.5, 2.0 lbs
Acrylic on canvas
Hand signed by artist
Artist's Commentary:
"Budding bond In this heartfelt artwork, I portrayed two little girls kneel on a lush carpet of grass, their eyes filled with innocence and wonder. With hands joined together, they delicately cradle a vibrant bunch of flowers, their shared treasure. The soft sunlight filtering through the foliage create a serene scene, capturing the beauty of childhood friendship and the simple joy found in nature's gifts. The artwork encapsulates a moment of unity and discovery as the two girls bond over the delicate beauty of the flowers they hold."
