As a figurative painter, Amna Rahman is painting a portrait that is similar to meeting another human in a very intense and transformative way. During the conception of subjects and her thought process, she is emotionally invested. The process can be termed as a multidimensional ritual which connects her to another life just as prehistorically dreams were used to prove heretics that met with the devil and made love. It feels as if the painting is securing a place in the other world, changing the landscape of our minds.
