Naz Hakim, The Memory of Coal, Mixed media, 180 x 180 cm, 2013.London.
Naz Hakim Kurdish artist
Born in 1984 in Sulaymaniyah, Iraq, where she currently lives and works.
She earned her MA from the Middlesex University London. She is a lecturer
at the College of Fine Arts, University of Sulaymaniyah. She regularly
exhibits in solo and group exhibitions in Iraq as well as abroad. Naz works
with a variety of media, including installation, video, painting and drawing.
Political issues and trauma are the central themes in her works, where she
often uses “controversial” materials, for instance black oil, linen, coal, iron
and metal, which refer to specific events that she has experienced as a
Kurdish artist. Her work reproduces controversial visual signs, arranging
materials into a new conceptual form. She is also interested in working with
materials processing. She carries out chemical operations in order to change
the material and bring it back to the raw status where it came from or
preserve it in the way she wants, as a presence of her subjectivity.
