Zahra Holm
Originally from Sweden and Tunisia, contemporary artist Zahra Holm currently works and resides in Paris, France. Zahra is a self-taught painter primarily working with oil paint. She has obtained a diploma in scenography and set design whilst studying in Paris. After completing her studies Zahra has continued to pursue and realise her dream of becoming a painter.
The aesthetic of her work is reminiscent of mid-century modernist painters. The subject of her work is largely focused on the female form. Her bold use of colour and curvaceous lines create striking compositions that reflect the power and beauty of women. Of her influences Zahra states, “In painting, I’m fascinated and inspired by great classics artists such as Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Hilma af Klint, Helen Frankenthaler. But mostly women I know, women I see.”
Zahra continues to work from her Paris studio where she produces original artworks and prints that are available to purchase via her website as well as selected galleries and boutiques.
