About Rana Begum
Rana Begum was born in 1977 in Bangladesh and moved to Hertfordshire, England, in 1983. She received her BA in fine art from Chelsea College of Art and Design, University of London, in 1999 and her MFA in painting from Slade School of Fine Art, London, in 2002. Begum’s work distills spatial and visual experience into ordered form. Through her refined language of Minimalist abstraction, Begum blurs the boundaries between sculpture, painting, and architecture. Her visual language draws from the urban landscape and incorporates geometric patterns from traditional Islamic art and architecture. Light is fundamental to her process. Begum’s works absorb and reflect varied densities of light to produce an experience for the viewer that is both temporal and sensory.
