I Was Never Broken | Textured Abstract Art by Ramel Jasir
About the Artwork
I Was Never Broken is a powerful 36 x 36 inch abstract painting by Ramel Jasir, created using acrylic paint and crushed eggshells on canvas. Rooted in the philosophy of transformation, this work embraces the beauty found in what society often discards, overlooks, or labels as broken.
As an abstract artist, Jasir has long been drawn to the unexpected—creating some of his strongest works on salvaged wood, discarded materials, and forgotten surfaces. In this piece, crushed eggshells become both texture and metaphor. Once fragile and discarded, they are reassembled into a unified composition that speaks to resilience, adaptation, and quiet strength.
Layered forms, rhythmic movement, and tactile surfaces invite the viewer to look closer—revealing that every crack and imperfection carries meaning. Rather than symbolizing damage, the fractures represent growth, lived experience, and the raw materials of transformation.

Collector’s Note
Life, like art, is often a collage of shattered experiences, deferred dreams, and unexpected turns. I Was Never Broken is a visual reminder that adversity does not diminish us—it shapes us. The crushed eggshells embedded in this painting symbolize the ability to reform, reshape, and rise with intention.
Every fracture is part of the design. Every imperfection adds depth. This piece encourages the viewer to embrace fragments, failures, and challenges as essential components of strength and creativity. What was once broken becomes foundational. What was discarded becomes elevated.
This painting is not about survival—it is about transformation.
Peace.
