Works by Fieroza Doorsen
Fieroza Doorsen is an English abstract artist who has developed her own personal language with an emphasis on pattern and coloured forms. She lives and works in London.
Education
She received a master in printmaking at Chelsea School of Art, London in 1985 and earned a BA in fine art at Ravensbourne College of Art, London in 1984.
Technique
Fieroza Doorsen uses a wide range of materials: charcoal, ink, pastel, oil, acrylic, gouache, collage to name a few, producing works on paper, oil on canvases and wall based sculptures.
Inspiration
Doorsen uses drawing as a way for investigation of ideas and shapes, she plays with curves and lines, geometric mark making and organic forms, colour and monochrome. Her artistic approach has somewhat some reminiscence of Arte Povera using materials such as tissue paper, wax.
Relevant Quotes
“Predominantly abstract, Doorsen’s images range from repeated patterns to brightly coloured organic forms. Theses works draw the viewer into a visual language that evokes the formal matrices of classical abstraction that accumulate in the vocabulary of a distinctive and individual language.” (curators for the Emergence exhibition, Paris, 2014)
Collections
Her works are present in public and private collections internationally including the Penguin Collection London and the Deedee Rose Collection in Dallas
Exhibitions
She has mostly and regularly exhibited in the UK but her work has also been displayed in France, the US and Italy.
