Mystical Expressionism

Jamali, a contemporary artist based out of Winter Park, Florida, was recently featured in Florida International Magazine as one of its People of Like Mind 2008 for his mystical expressionist art.

Jamali, whose artwork focuses on mystical expressionism, was featured as one of the Designing Minds, who are pushing the expectations of artistic methods being used by artists in the Florida and throughout.

Mystical expressionism is a new mode of art-making that combines the scientific insights of our new age with humankind's ancient wisdom. Obeying the dream guide who set him on the path to art, Jamali himself has named his life's work Art & Peace.

The source of Jamali's art and his life lies in the primordial spiritual traditions of the East. In his birthplace Peshawar, the Asian crossroads city, Jamali was influenced by Buddhist, Hindu, and Sufi ideas of the sacredness of being. Jamali is the first to incorporate the paradoxes of quantum mechanics into contemporary art.

Jamali's method of painting is its own unique chapter in the history of contemporary art. He paints out of doors, applying paint in a meditative dance, like the Sufi mystic's swirling prayer to God.

He builds up his intense and complex surfaces over time, allowing the natural elements to interact with the paint and canvas. It often feels as if time and nature, not the artist, had created these deeply etched and layered surfaces.

Jamali's method brings to new fruition what Donald Kuspit calls "the unconscious mystical meaning of modernist surface."
