Artist

AHMED MANNAN

Born 2000, Osaka

My works have included pieces that use clothing as a support, recent works made with pigments I produce myself, and, since last year, works that combine rugs with painting. Moving across the various materials connected to me, and through visual expression in paint and the act of writing, the aim of my practice is to record my experiences in my living space and the formation of my identity; this is the concept that runs through all of my works to date
