From the heart of Iraq to the heart of Europe, Nedim has lived an extraordinary life of suffering and isolation. Adventures in mixed media-from paper and flowers to earth and terracotta – have helped him create muddy expressions of thought that straddle the disciplines of printing, print making and design. Drawing on the Islamic tradition of repetition and patterning, Kufi is a virtuoso of improvisation and experimentation.
