Yousef Yousef

Youssef Youssef (Al Qamishli, Syria, 1979) graduated from Adham Ismail      Institute for Fine Arts in 2004 and was awarded the First Prize for Portrait of Syrian young Artists in 2005.  

Youssef's subject matters often revolve around the human condition and the complexities of human emotions. He is particularly interested in exploring the concept of identity, and his works often feature portraits of individuals with   various expressions and moods.

A distinctive aspect of Youssef's style is his use of abstraction and distortion. He often manipulates the proportions and features of his subjects, creating stylized and abstracted portraits that are both haunting and mesmerizing.

Overall, his style can be described as a fusion of realism, expressionism, and abstraction, resulting in a body of work that is both visually striking and       emotionally evocative.
