Yasser is an artist on a path of continuous transformation, moving from realism to abstraction, from the body to its manifestations. He embarks on an inner journey, carrying his vision as both a spiritual and artistic state. He chases meaning in the shadows, painting with light and emptiness. He does not depict what is seen, but what remains after seeing, drawing the trace of figures when they leave the scene, and the echo of a voice as it falls silent. Wandering between the sensual and the spiritual, he seeks to articulate the essence of existence through the language of color.
