- Creating, not to know who one is, but may be what orwho one is becoming.
Tamar'sdrawings are an experimental description of a mutation. Whator who are we during this endless process? Growing into an organic structure,whose roots disperse while having a great hold on the earth, a living being, serenelike a tree, with a sharp contour but whose inner nature seethes, an emptyspace marked with the stamp of an absent one.
Strange feeling of aspiration and of dizziness bornfrom this emptiness, and strange feeling opposite and also vigorous of fullness,abundance, intensity, when the background of the drawing fills the existingspace and transforms it in a matrix of energies. - Painter
Born in 1975
