At the heart of Mazarine's artistic journey lies a fundamental belief: art thrives on challenging the viewer's perspective. Her signature style, aptly named "Mysteries In Colour," embodies this philosophy. Defined by a captivating interplay of realism and abstraction, these works initially present a canvas adorned with "pretty shapes," as one collector described. However, upon closer inspection, the brain engages in a delightful game of Pareidolia, deciphering hidden figures and narratives within the abstract forms. This "decoding" process imbues the artwork with a sense of revelation, transforming it into a vibrant tapestry of meaning and individual interpretation.
The artist, a resident of Toronto alongside her husband, is not only an artist but also an educator and a proud mother of two. Her son, an engineer, thrives in Boston, while her daughter, a lawyer, brings her skills to Washington D.C. Her personal background paints a rich tapestry as well. Born in Bombay (Mumbai) to a vibrant Zoroastrian family, she carries the heritage of her Iranian ancestry and embraces the spirit of her adopted home, Canada. Describing herself as "Indian by birth, Italian at heart, and Canadian by choice," she reflects a unique blend of cultural influences.
Her creative process unfolds within the inspiring walls of "The Art Brewery," her personal studio where "magic happens." This haven is an environment for exploration and experimentation. A testament to her innovative spirit is the recent publication of her art workbook, "Mysteries in Colour™." This launch, accompanied by a series of creative workshops, further reinforces her dedication to fuelling artistic expression in both individuals and communities.
Mazarine's artistic vision transcends the canvas. She invites viewers to embark on a journey of discovery, encouraging them to actively engage with her art and unlock the unique narratives it holds within. Her work stands as a testament to the transformative power of art, reminding us that true beauty often lies in the unexpected, waiting to be revealed by the curious mind.
