Artist Monika Jahan, currently living in Winnipeg, Canada, merges science and emotion in her art. She is an artist and a professional textile engineer with a lifelong passion for storytelling through the visual arts. Since 2010, she has been creating paintings that are rooted in meaning, emotion, and narrative — pieces that inspire viewers and leave a lasting message.

Her engineering background plays a significant role in her artistic process. With her professional experience in Research & Development at Epyllion Group (18 months), dyes and chemical applications in a multinational dyes company (6 months), and Material technology at the Italian brand Original Marines (2 years), she brought a highly technical understanding of color science, material behavior, and visual perception to her paintings. She also holds a Master’s degree from the University of Manitoba, which further deepened her analytical and creative approach.
In her artwork, she intentionally applies engineering principles such as:
· Light refraction & reflection to create realistic illumination
· Color theory & spectrum analysis for precise blending and vibrancy
· Shadow mapping & depth gradients to achieve dimensional accuracy
· Structural balance inspired by material science and design engineering
These techniques enable her to create paintings that are both emotionally rich and technically precise. Her goal is to merge science and art — transforming concepts into compelling visual stories where technique meets soul.
