“The dichotomy of our world underscores my work – chaos and order, inner and outer realities, yin and yang, ancient and modern, real and unreal
“Born to a Chinese/Indian father and Malay mother, I’m influenced by a multiverse of spiritual ancestry.”
”
Reza Hasni (1982 Singapore; lives in Berlin) is a visual artist and motion designer illuminating the unseen and emphasizing journey-ing over endpoints.
In his illustrations, animations, installations and textiles, Hasni combines personal memories and fantasies with universal themes such as existence, nature, ethnicity, time and infinity. His work is influenced by Ancient symbolism and sacred geometry spanning the East and West. He explores multi-layered issues such as the spiritual void in the Internet Age and the dichotomy of our worlds - ancient and modern, the real and unreal, construction and destruction.
Reza is open for commissions such as but not limited to - Album and cover art, Posters, Live audio-visual shows, Logos, Merchandise, Music videos, AR and mixed-reality experiences.
