THE COLOURS OF HAPPINESS
Special Moments of Love
The theme in the paintings of Sattar Kawoosh is love, special moments between woman and man in a romantic atmosphere. In his work you can see a mix between One Thousand and one Night of the East, where he comes from and the Jugendstil of the North, where he now lives. He is always looking for original sizes, such as for example round or oval shapes, ranges and spatial work such as tables, chairs and other 3D work.
The Window of Hope
As an artist, Sattar looks at the world through his own window. The window means to him hope, future, happiness and freedom. Through his paintings he looks at a positive future. There is no difference to him as he paints a window or as he looks out through a window.
