Mousa AlNana
Mousa AlNana's art is personal, it's like a diary, when you look at his artwork, you can sense humanity in its different colours and vulnerable stages, under the rough surfaces and the delicate lines. Between the collage techniques and monochromatic style, you can see the human soul in a composition of figures and space.
He takes from his personal experiences to talk about issues and emotions, to which we all can relate and share.
