Anna Fill talking to Fareen Butt

Creations by Fareen Butt are precious. Precious metals and gemstones are used to enhance the landscape paintings and creates a three dimensional effect which you just can't resist but to reach out and touch. The Mirage collection that graced the walls of the Carré Doré art gallery in Monaco was a mass of exploding colour.

Fareen is a contemporary artist and her abstract paintings have embraced Japanese and Indian techniques which used crushed gemstones, minerals and precious metal-based pigments. The paintings pay homage to sacred mountain landscapes and shes give them a visual burst of energy reflecting the artist's emotions and interpretations of sublimity.
