Over de kunstenaar

Nasser Al Aswadi was born in 1978 in Yemen. Nasser studied architecture at The Technical School in Taiz and Sanaa. He exhibited his first works in Sanaa in 2001. Since 2008, Nasser has been moving between Yemen and France. For Nasser Al Aswadi, calligraphy is a way to express feelings and thoughts without them being specifically linked to the language. He uses Arabic letters, words and forms as well as religious and musical sources. The wide variety of meanings and styles nourish the artist’s creativity.
Nasser’s work is inspired by the events of the Arab Spring, daily realities, rural landscapes, architecture, and public crowds on the streets. As he was always keen to translate this experience into artistic creations, in each piece of work, Nasser picks a writing style that lends the best sense and passion to that particular work. Letters and words are not drawn on a


straight line or horizontally, but painted and stacked separately and are identical to each other, tangled and lost in the imaginary space of the painting.
