HASSAN KADUDU Artist Statement
A piece of canvas, paper or leather provides me with sufficient means to represent my feelings and moods through my art. I am but one among the many people in the world with the same emotions and the same right of life that I wish to share, bitter or sweet, through art. Art is my release from the daily difficulties of life and my passage to paradise. After much time hoping I finally realized a personal dream of mine and opened my gallery at 236 Hurumzi. I can hardly express my joy.
