Hani Naji Biography Contemporary artwork of self-expression, with strong visual and color compositions. Hani Naji was born in the south of Iraq in educated family. His father was a professor of mathematics with degree pf PhD from the University of Edinburgh. His father has a great collection of classical music libraries which Hani Naji enjoyed at an early age and played a critical role in shaping his inner soul. Hani Naji self-artist he took art as serious as self-reservation, and expiration starting at the age of 8 years old. Hani Naji is a Self-tough artist who studied art intensively on his own. At the age of 19 Hani Naji finished his first sires “The silent figures”, a body of artwork with more than 100 pieces with themes of alienation, isolation, in search of hope and love. All lost after he fled his country at the end of the first gulf war. He re captured most the of the images in the refugee camp on shirts cardboard and papers given to him by the US soldiers. Hani Naji survived two major wars and refugee camps before he settled in the south of Virginia. He graduated from Virginia Tech University with a degree in Engineering and persuaded a career in both Engineering and art at the same time. Hani Naji is an inventive artist. He is always looking for new ways and new ideas, new expressions, and new methods to create unique visual effects which he expresses in several series he creates. Hani Naji abstract work resembles a musical composition that conveys impressions and feelings. He conveys his expressions with forms and colors and figures that interact and cross each other’s to give up a story to the viewer and challenge his reflections. He is inspired to create a strong bond and experience between the painter and the keen observer. the artist expressed this in his own words “my abstract art is like complex musical composition. It adheres to fine scale to implement harmonies; colors are like magic that move the visual feelings.” In the series Object and Perception, Hani Naji repeats the same object over and over to create visual perceptions leading the eye and the mind of the viewer on path to another world. He is trying to create memorable visual experiences: ocean full of floating ladders; paper airplanes filing heaven; keys all over the desert. Hani Naji wants the viewer to be stuck in the moment of the viewing. In his series Morphing, Hani Naji combines the old with new, east with west, the moving with the still to create one tapestry of painting or sculpture. Artwork from different times and culture could be emerged in the here to create artwork. There are no limits or boundaries to what could be done in art. A moving object could emerge from the still, sensuality could be transparent from an old tapestry.
