“Art is an expression of life that transcends both time and space. We must explore our own souls through art to give a new form and a new meaning to the nature of the world. There is a certain point in time, where the harmony of light, atmosphere, and spirit collide, a place in the cosmos where the rhythm of nature unfolds in front of the camera. This can only happen once.” ~Rolfe Horn

Minoo Moadel entered the world of visual art through photography. As a painter, she has always been drawn to abstract art, formally trained at the Art Students League in New York City. The inspiration for her work is derived from the fusion of visual media and sound. In terms of Minoo’s philosophy of art, she posits that there is a creative relationship between the artist and the viewer; the artist creates an image that is experienced by the viewer through the recollection of their memories, emotions and spirituality. In essence, the artwork is a collaborative effort between the artist who creates the piece and the viewer who interprets the work through their own unique vision and experience.

In 2019, Minoo began experimenting with multiple media, exhibiting her abstract works accompanied by instrumental music which was inspired by her work. In this manner, she created an immersive atmosphere for the viewer to experience art in both visual and auditory realms. Following her interdisciplinary collaboration, Minoo has been inspired to integrate image and sound as an interpretation of reality in time and space. She has developed a style which synthesizes rhythm, composition, color, harmony and movement into a dynamic image. In the evolution of her style, Minoo has created several recent series, including those influenced by sound vibrations, calligraphy, and the movements of a symphony conductor. Currently, Minoo’s vision is derived from her internal and external reality beyond the conscious mind into the unconscious realm. She portrays her interpretation of reality on the surface of the canvas within the present time and culture of the 21st century.
