Essays

Hayam and the Vocal Light
By meditating her artwork, we notice a rectangle shape with four legs like a chair. In the upper corner there is an oval head set on with a pulled hair stretching out as a crazy wind had pulled it back. On the opposite side to the left, it’s a tail depicted in group of parallel stripes lean to the upper left. Such a powerful piece of fine arts, depicted in high talented technique, strengthen with very flaming colors of yellow and red, while the widen black areas of the fancy animal’s billy that looks like an embryo carrying his existence in his mother’s womb. On the other way, the head stretched out of body pulled both flesh and bones together to represent the other invisible side with circular eye in black and white, stands in opposite motion to be seen as looking behind.
Hayam is an academic artist, but delight and we astonished when we see the unexpected unique talent as she lets the way to her passions, expressing he inner self in producing such a real art creations.
