Trifa Anwar
I was born in 1970. In 1994, I finished my studies at The Academy of Arts in Babel, Iraq. I now live in Gothenburg, Sweden. My artwork has appeared in numerous exhibitions.
Drops are like people. We look different. We are transparent. We are without colour, without smell yet we represent and embody the notion of life and nature What happens if the water drops freeze? The background is no longer visible. This is the subject I work with. In my images, there is light under the water, sunlight reaches the water. The light has different colours. All people have energy; this is personified through the different colours, patterns and movements of life.
