Jamali’s Pigment Dispersions on canvas.

When finished, the brilliant colors shimmer beneath a surface that mimics translucent porcelain. The visual statement is powerful and complete; what may appear opposite or contrary is equally complementary and interconnected.

“I laid a very large canvas on the ground, surrounded by organic pigments.  I wanted something I could float to make dispersions.  I went to the supply shop and purchased gallons of different substances, pigments and paints. Eventually I discovered the right formula that allowed the liquid pigments to float intact, disperse above the surface -  and maintain the purity and inherent color of the pigments, even when left exposed to the weather for prolonged periods.” - Jamali
