Artist statement:
"كل شيء بالكون لديه جانب ابيض و جانب أسود"
"Everything has a White side and a black side"
"In general, my works are consistent with several matters on which the universe and existence are based, as well as several scientific and cosmic theories and others, such as the theory of deconstruction and differentiation and contrast, which is the axis of the universe and the basis of its construction, such as night and day, man and woman, black and white, shadow and light, etc. I also try to add colors and shapes that are consistent with therapeutic art and positive energy so that there is a benefit from the presence of the painting in the place and on the recipient as well, such as adding the color black and white and the circular shape that enhances the presence of positive energy according to what studies have proven. In my works, I always like to add what is new and useful, so I also tried to link colors with the Arabic and English alphabet letters so that the colors have a meaning and the person can convey a message and a clear meaning through the language of colors. I explained this language at the opening of my personal exhibition, from black to white, where I hung ribbons, each ribbon carrying a letter from A to Z and a color as well, starting from black, then warm to cold colors, from dark to light, and ending with white, and also relying on The colors of the wave spectrum in the color wheel and the wavelength of each color, so you can find a word or sentence that has a meaning only from the colors in it."
Bio:
Janarita Al-Armouti is a professional visual artist from Jordan. She obtained a BA in French and English Literature from the University of Petra and a diploma in Fine Arts and Drawing from the Institute of Fine Arts. She was honored by Britain’s King Charles III and won several international competitions. She established her own gallery and worked in The field of arts education, the organization and management of international exhibitions, including an exhibition in Georgia with the participation of approximately 60 artists from 17 countries, an international exhibition in Lebanon, the Indian exhibition, and several other exhibitions in Jordan and elsewhere. She was selected to paint on the Warrior Train at the Army Special Operations Training center for the opening and closing of the International Warrior Competition Located in the King Abdullah II Centre. She won several international and local artistic awards, and her works were exhibited around the world in several countries, including Jordan, Lebanon, Austria, Algeria, China, the Maldives, Turkey, India, Georgia, Japan and others. She established the Art and Life Initiative to encourage children and orphans to develop their talents. She participated as a jury in international and local competitions. She opened a joint personal exhibition with an Algerian-French artist in 2017, in which she displayed artworks only in black and white. After that she developed her experiment by adding other colors so that the painting would not lose its color value. She opened her personal exhibition, From Black to White, in 2020, which is rich in topics and some theories that she learned it while studying literature, including the theory of binary oppositions, oppositions, and contradictions that exist in the universe, such as black and white, man and woman, happiness and sadness, cold and hot, and all the opposites of the universe. We also see in most of her paintings the circular shape that positive energy adopts in its movement, and it also uses the theory of “deconstruction.” She has several artistic studies on these topics. He also talked about the importance of art, especially drawing, in discharging negative energy and emotions and its importance in controlling the subconscious mind in addition to share about the meanings of colors and their effect on people, feelings, place the body and disease as well. She employs them in her own style in her artistic works, also combining old schools with modern and contemporary art Among the most important schools that influenced it were Cubism by Picasso, Surrealism by Salvador Dali, and Post-Impressionism by Van Gogh, along with Abstractionism and others, as well as the mixing of media and materials. At that time, she used compact discs in a modern way and followed other theories about the world of colors and their arrangement with the letters of the alphabet. Due to the Corona situation at that time and the limited permission to attend, the exhibition was also shown electronically, and in a live broadcast on YouTube and on her website After 2016 after With these theories, Janaritta entered the world of art and greatly influenced the Jordanian fine art movement at first and then the international art. One of her goals is to develop art and add new movement. As it was technically common knowledge that it was not allowed to use black and white in the palette, but the basis of art, from her point of view, was breaking the rules, so she began using it explicitly with other colors and by combining schools and tools as well, and initially based on criticism, but after that it became popular and a significant increase began using these colors in many artworks of different artists It also influenced the fine art movement in the international exhibitions, merging civilizations, cultures, encouraging tourism, and drawing these tourist and archaeological places. After that, the demand for establishing such exhibitions in Jordan in particular and exchanging the experiences of artists from different countries increased to contribute to the progress of art for the better and to encourage new talents as well, because they are the future generation.

One of its goals is also to encourage artists to sell their work and change the saying, “Art does not feed bread,” and to affirm that the diligent artist and painter can achieve financial income, just like any other skill, in terms of selling paintings, holding courses, etc...
