Mohamed Saïd Chaer Bio


Picture
Born 1989, Tangier, Morocco
Lives and works in Tangier, Morocco
Mohamed had a passion for art from an early age and while opportunities for art education were not readily available for him in Tangiers, he persevered with self-guided studies from books to internet and constant practice and drawing and home and on the street to develop his artistic practice, achieving his first exhibition at the age of 19 and his first solo exhibition at just 24. Drawing his inspiration from the figurative masters of painting such as Lucian Freud, he has developed a visual language, which enables him to develop complex social commentary about the ordinary lives of people. His perspective is that of giving is a voyeurs look at someone’s life, while concealing their identity and protecting them from shame by placing cardboard boxes on heads of his subjects. His passionate commitment to practice and unique signature style has already won his recognition and support from numerous local and international institutions and collectors.
