Mohamed Chabâa was a Moroccan visual artist. He was a member of the Casablanca School and a leader of contemporary art and modernism in the Global South.
Warm-up + Project
Mohammad Chaaba’s work from this period immediately drew me in. My first view felt as if I was entering an unexpected adventure. Yes, the colors are stunning, and the bold designs are beautiful, but it's the movement, deliberate placement, and relationship in space of different shapes and designs that captured my attention.
Grab your paints, watercolor or acrylics, paint markers, water-based markers, and even cut paper if you are so inclined.
Let's see where we go with this artist's inspiration this week!
