(Via Hannah Traore Gallery) Hassan Hajjaj (b. 1961; Larache, Morocco) creates vibrant, boldly colorful portraits of inspiring figures in his life—musicians, friends, artists—that express evolving notions of self and society in today’s globalized, hyperconnected world. The artist photographs his subjects outfitted in fashions of his own design and situated in studios he builds himself and installs on the street. The images are then fitted in a frame made from various commercial products, enshrining each portrait in an international blend of music, fashion, and consumer culture.
