Portrait Of Hazuan Hashim

I made this portrait of Hazuan Hashim from a photograph taken in 2002 of him modelling hats for a charity show in London. The starting point for the composition was a scan of his hair which provided the fluid line connecting various parts of the composition. The eye at the top is from a different photograph of Hazuan (when he wasn’t on stage) where the expression was differerent from the main Portrait. So in one image we have different moods creating a psychological landscape suggesting fragments of memory, shifting identities and interior states.
