Take It Easy, Metamorphosis

Take it Easy by Tanya Minhas

Playtime New York, Metropolitan Pavilion, New York

August 1-3, 2015

“Movement” is the theme for the 11th edition of Playtime New York (held from August 1-3, 2015) in Metropolitan Pavilion in the heart of Chelsea, New York. Movement because of the increasing numbers of brands and movement because of the increasing numbers of visitors. Some new, some returning.

"Tanya Minhas is a painter living and working in New York City. She was born and brought up in Pakistan. Falling in love dislocated her, and relocated her, from her childhood home to New York and her new family. Reconciling two worlds was unexpectedly difficult and she often felt as if there were two versions of her as their coexistence got increasingly distorted. Her artwork is about transformation, the search for an ultimate unity of self and world. She explores enforced sepa-rations, anxieties housed in differences, nature responding to disruptions, and coming to terms with growing apart from the familiar. Her works is her visual expression of life devoted to finding harmony and beauty in ordinary real life."
