Mussawir, whose name fittingly means “artist,” is an 18-year-old creative with Down syndrome who embodies the true essence of creativity through his love for figurative and landscape art. His passion for art allows him to express complex emotions and ideas that transcend verbal communication.
Mussawir uses pen and graphite on paper to create intricate, detailed drawings that reveal his deep attention to the subtleties of form and expression. These works often serve as the foundation for his larger acrylic paintings on canvas, where he brings his ideas to life with bold colours and dynamic compositions.
