Ina Qirushi is a Costume Designer and visual artist based in Maine. Her creativity is rivaled by her ability to multitask, creating a visual story that didn’t exist a moment ago, understanding the vision and making it happen. Ina’s keen eye, varied skill set, and curiosity guide her through the distinct challenges that each project brings, resulting in a fresh approach for tales new and old.

Interested in the concept of duality, her paintings are a blend of control and unexpected; on the canvas, the elements intertwine and oppose, capturing those bits and pieces that have struck a cord with her. These non-representational landscapes aim to hint at something familiar, yet remain open-ended to allow the viewer’s imagination to complete the story. Striving for a quiet balance with a sense of mood and movement on the surface, through a unique transfer of energy in the action of painting. She refined her skills that gave her that unique style combining abstract and realism with a contemporary feel

Ina’s paintings reflect an internal landscape, created through processes of emotional reflection. It is her voice expressed and a personal exploration into a world purely of her own making while serving as a mirror of her inner being.
