Mohammad Ali Bhatti is a well-known contemporary expressionist painter. He concentrates on themes such as mysticism and socio-political issues. Bhatti begins a painting with a random mark making ambiguous shapes to create a kind of rough structure. This process continues until connections between the smaller and larger shapes are made. Bhatti refers to this intuitive process as the “inward journey” of creativity. His work is expressive, energetic, and bold. Inward Journey features abstract paintings, which were created over the year 2023.

Born and raised in Pakistan, Bhatti attended local art institutions in his youth and subsequently traveled to the United States where he earned an MFA from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania, and a PhD in Interdisciplinary Arts from Ohio University, Athens. For the last 35 years, he has painted and exhibited around the world, including 35 solo exhibitions.

Guests can meet the artist at the opening reception and listen to an artist talk. The exhibition will remain on view through February 1.
