Zoha's Technique

A Fusion of Time: The Innovation Behind Zoha Abdulsater’s Technique

Art serves as a bridge across time, merging eras and mediums to create something profoundly new yet deeply rooted in tradition. Zoha Abdulsater’s technique embodies this philosophy, seamlessly blending digital innovation with traditional artistry to produce singular, one-of-a-kind works- no replicas, no reproductions.

Born in a pre-digital era, she was immersed in the tactile joys of art: the texture of canvas, the scent of fresh paint, the satisfaction of brushstrokes. Motherhood in the age of AI introduced new challenges- a limited space and time- prompting her to adapt. Embracing modernity, she turned to digital creation, ensuring her artistic voice remained vibrant amidst life’s demands.

Yet, the digital realm alone couldn’t encapsulate the depth she sought. To bring her creations into the physical world, each digital piece is printed onto Hahnemühle William Turner giclee paper, a choice favored by esteemed artists. This museum-grade, archival canvas offers unparalleled durability and richness, serving as the perfect foundation for further transformation, canvases that are even more durable and rich than traditional ones. Upon this printed canvas, she applies acrylics and other traditional mediums, infusing each piece with texture, emotion, and a tangible connection to her artistic roots. This process ensures that every artwork is a unique masterpiece, reflecting a harmonious dialogue between past and present, tradition and innovation.

Through this method, Zoha Abdulsater bridges time- honoring the legacy of traditional art while embracing the possibilities of modern technology. Each piece stands as a testament to resilience, adaptability, and the relentless pursuit of creative expression, deeply connected to her roots and the ever-evolving world around her.
