HazzA’s work spans painting, sculpture, and drawing, showcasing his versatility and creativity across various mediums. He is most recognized for his surrealist paintings, which center on his alter ego placed within imaginative and dreamlike scenarios. At the core of HazzA’s artistic practice is a desire to explore the subconscious. His works serve as a visual translation of his inner thoughts and frustrations, often infused with subtle cheekiness and a playful sense of humor. By tapping into his subconscious mind, HazzA seeks to make the intangible tangible by creating a new world in each painting where the boundary between reality and fantasy is blurred. A key characteristic of his work is his use of bright, neon-like colors. These vivid hues contribute to the dynamic and otherworldly atmospheres that define his surrealist scenarios, drawing the viewer into the strange and whimsical environments his alter ego inhabits.
