Iraq – Fine artist turns their silent paintings into spoken

Erbil – Iraq 14/06/2020

Contrary to all artistic models, the artist Osama Iyad decided to break the well-known technical rules and think differently from the rest of the painters, and to get out of the embodiment of the natural scenes and the people in his paintings, and turn them into colorful narrations, adapted from distinctive colloquial and Arabic writings. Embodying novels and stories in artistic paintings, according to Hussam, aims to remind Arab societies with the importance of reading, especially since reading novels and learning about different cultures no longer exists among the children of this generation, and books and libraries have become completely deserted.
