Hussein Tai
Hussein Tai (born 1966, Baghdad[1]) is an Iraqi-Danish contemporary artist. He graduated from Baghdad in 1992, and later on completed a Masters in Fine Art(MFA) in the National College of Art and Design(NCAD).
Work[edit]
Hussein Tai's imagery is predominantly abstract and holds a special alternation between quiet surfaces and tempestuously energy centers. His colour use roots in his time in Iraq, which together with the more Nordic colour tones, gives the works a significant depth. Tai combines a flat fitting expression of perspectival aspects which works give a special character of intensity and a condensed expression.[2][3][4]
His work to date includes paintings, graphic print and photography.
