Samara Couri is an artist whose figurative paintings address humanity’s deep interconnectedness.
In addition to working on canvas, Couri also uses mirrors as a canvas to engage viewers directly within the artwork. These mirror paintings face and reflect one another to form immersive parallel worlds. The viewer becomes involved in these angles and changes of perspective, accentuating Couri’s explorations into the human figure, desire, and movement to create a psychological hall of mirrors.
Originally from London, Couri received her BA from City & Guilds of London Art School, and she has exhibited throughout London, New York, Los Angeles, and Hawaii.
She currently lives and works in Honolulu, Hawaii.
