A common characteristic, which is called many paintings of the prominent Moroccan plastic artist Bushti Al -Hayani, which is printed by the presence of the body of a stable “human” in his place, disciplined or forcibly, pushes the eye of the beholder to stop with him, contemplate him, put him and see him.
Bushti Al -Hayani, who studied at the “School of Fine Arts” in Casablanca and “The School of Fine Arts” in Paris and taught plastic art, said an answer to the question of the electronic newspaper Hespress about the human preoccupation with his artistic work, that he returns to “the Iraqi war; I used to work in Omar Khayyam High School in Applied Arts, and whenever I returned home after a working day to rest; And the fruit (the show) is shrouded in a white fabric, after they threw themselves into the sea.
Al -Hayani conveyed his own success: “I said: a person adheres to life, even if he is without a hand, no man, or without an eye. And if you ask him: Do you want death?
And he added, “I wondered whether a person lost his humanity, and this is what led me to work on man.”
On the “human” paintings of Bushti Al -Hayani, he answered: “The person I draw has no hair, and often without eyes, or his eyes are closed. There is no reproductive system for him, because I want a person to see from his head to his feet, from above to the bottom, and if he has a member, he will not be seen as a whole … and if he had hair, he would have been attached to a certain geographical area …
Al -Hayani, who has no longer passed his works at the bottom of the board, talks about the artist’s “experiences”, not “experience” only, to send a explanation: “My experience … but my experiences; they are stages, transfers were the fruits of the effort of readings and writings, and the study of plastic art, which is a mixture between what I received in school, and what I see in exhibitions, books, and read the history of art The plastic, which makes me compelled to be in contact and familiarity with everything related to plastic arts, even if I am not a historian of plastic art.
On his choice of signing, Bushti Al -Hayani mentioned: “I usually sign my work back (behind the painting). Because when he signed, people see the signature, not working as a whole.”
Then he added: “At one time, I started writing three numbers:“ 8 ”“ 6 ”“ 7 ”, and later became a signature, even if it came arbitrarily at the beginning, I became writing it intentionally … I do not know its source: I saw it in a door, or an electricity bill.
Likewise, in an earlier stage: “I saw a rarely called“ HB (HB), ”so I said it is a signature of my first letters: Hayani Bushti!
Why these scrutiny? In his statement to Hespress, Bushti replied: “Dyeing is all. There is something that is subject to a feeling, and in it the subconscious, which comes like this (without knowing his source). Man is a mixture of what is my thought, and what is sensual. They are together in my work.”
