Hassan Hajjaj is a contemporary artist who lives and works between London and Marrakech. In his body of work, Hajjaj celebrates his nomadic lifestyle and the diverse people he meets - from musicians, to athletes, artists and performers. Hajjaj is influenced by his love for music - the hip-hop, reggae scenes of London - and popular music of Marrakech.
His work has been collected by the Brooklyn Museum, the Nasher Museum of Art, the Newark Museum, Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, the Victoria & Albert museum and Kamel Lazaar Foundation.
In 2017, Hassan Hajjaj photographed Cardi B for the November issue of New York magazine. Hassan invited me to his studio and we had a chat about his journey as an artist.
