Using a thick, expressive brushstroke as the guiding force of his painterly compositions, artist Islam El Rihany seeks to encourage through his art a consideration of both message and process. Impulsive applications of paint only further this profundity that lures so many viewers into El Rihany’s work.
Born in Assiout in 1986, El Rihany completed his BA at Minya University's Faculty of Fine Art, where he now works and teaches. His artwork has been featured in many exhibitions around Egypt and collected by many.
