Starting with scenes depicted on Black and Red Ancient Greek vases, I replaced men warriors with women warriors. I also asked a model to fight, scream, heal, crawl and dance, and used the photos in my work. 
The result is an installation composed of paintings (one large and one small, both on unstretched canvas) and pottery (a large vase and a smaller plate) on wall and floor.  
The large painting is an allegory of a woman fighting the Evil.
The vase tells a story of becoming a warrior through images and text. Words are used both poetically and as a link between the spoken and the unformed, like early pictograms in the ancient times.

« Art making is an asynchronous diary of daily events. The process is extreme and the result is surprising. » Tamara Wasserman is an artist based in the United States whose paintings have been featured in solo and group exhibitions nationally. She describes her most recent works as resulting from the fusion of observation with emotion. Omitting the details of faithful observation, Wasserman concentrates on the essentials, allowing "intense emotion to find its free abstracted expression". She creates using oils, acrylics, oil pastels, and charcoal on canvas or wood. Tamara was born in Riga, Latvia, and raised in Israel where she graduated from the Bezalel Art Academy in Jerusalem. Tamara is a visual artist, performer and writer. Her work is in private collections in the US, Israel, Switzerland and England. Tamara has exhibited in galleries of New York City, Chicago, Boston, Tel-Aviv, and Ann Arbor, Michigan. Tamara’s studio is at Bridgeport Art Center in Chicago. Wasserman's artistic family includes: Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Paul Gauguin, and Edvard Munch. Her work is deeply influenced by early Surrealism and DaDa.
