Aziz Anzabi

This work inspires me in a way that makes me think about stories by just looking at it. There is a isolated man in the middle of the canvas, featureless as if the artist, Aziz Anzabi wanted to just show that the man is not able to explain his perception or show it through his fine features. The artist has used a surralisem style creating different effects e.g. the paint has flawlessly moved from a light brown to a darker shade creating a 3d effect on the cubes that support the man's body. What really catches my eyes though is the piece of paper clinging to the man's face, shielding his eyes and nose like someone is trying to keep the man away from seeing the world.
