Afrozaa’s exhibition ‘Ochin Pakhi’ ends tomorrow

A solo painting exhibition titled ‘Ochin Pakhi’ by Afrozaa Jamil is being held at Bay’s Galleria of Radius Centre in the city’s Gulshan area.
The exhibition has begun on May 15. Parliament member and prominent actor Asaduzzaman Noor inaugurated the exhibition. Noted artists Ferdousi Priobhashini and Hashem Khan were also present on the opening day.
‘Ochin Pakhi’ is Afrozaa Jamil’s fifth solo exhibition which includes 21 paintings. The subject of all paintings of bird lover Afrozaa is bird. And Afrozaa named some of her paintings on birds as well. Just take a look at two of her works—‘Ekla Pakhi’, ‘Holudia pakhi sonar boron, pakhiti charilo ke!’ Through birds the painter symbolically tried to portray the moments of our daily lives, our tradition, national movements and so on.
In the twentyfirst century ‘loneliness’ is a common word among people on this earth. Afrozaa’s paintings are no exception. She has depicted it in some of her paintings with a skilled hand.
A painting called ‘Nabanno’ shows two women working with newly harvested rice and birds are around them. This is a familiar sight in our rural life.
‘Pakhi-1’, ‘Swadhinata-1’, ‘Swadhinata-2’, ‘Ekla Pakhi’ seem to be exceptional works on theme and subject among other pieces.
Afrozaa Jamil, major in Oriental art completed her Bachelor of Fine Arts in 1985. She moved to the US in 1989 and studied printmaking there. Back to Dhaka in 1995, the artist now is working relentlessly on her painting. She currently runs an arts and crafts centre and teaches painting to the children.
The exhibition will end tomorrow.
