About
Born in Amman, Jordan, Shereen Audi began her career as a painter in 1992.1 Under the supervision of various artists in Jordan and abroad, Shereen developed her style as an abstract expressionist artist. She cites Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Joan Miró, Franz Kline, Robert Motherwell and Andy Warhol, in addition to other Arab artists, as sources of inspiration and admiration.2 Shereen considers herself “a woman with a golden brush” who is motivated solely by her inner spirit. Utilizing dramatic colors and lines, Shereen believes that “art is a world of its own.”3,4
Shereen has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions. In an interview with Elan Magazine, she said that her emotions drive her work. “[Painting] is an escape from the burdens of daily life that tend to lead to monotony. Painting gives me the feeling of contentment, both from my heart and soul. It frees my mind and spirit.”5 Before painting, Shereen often meditates in order to clear her mind. “Abstract art is about the expression of freedom of mind and ideas, she has said, “I want people to look at my paintings and see through them, let their minds wonder and uncover the truth of my expressions.”6
