Basel Uraiqat

Basel Uraiqat, the owner of Atelier Uraiqat; a design studio that aims at integrating theory, art, and technology to create new environments in a contemporary vision.

Basel’s art is a process of exploration in which he discovers the topography of the human figure through an expressionist study of light, colour, and emotion. Although his work in architecture takes a digital dimension where he uses technology to explore forms and designs, in his paintings he exploits the intuitive dimensions of representation to expose the naked reality of the natural form. Through the distortion and violence of scale, texture and movement, his sublime work looks for the inner perceptive possibilities of the human mind.

Basel had his first solo exhibition in Amman at the French Cultural Centre in 2008, he also participated in group exhibitions in Amman and London.
