Faisal Taj Elsir: Art is a kind of resistance and victory for life

Port Sudan - moatinoon
Sixteen brushes blended to blend their colours on the latest art exhibitions in the port city of Port Sudan. At the exhibition called Lone, which started in the last September hose. Sixteen formations, including four formations and a wholesale of those displaced to the city due to the April War, participated in the exhibition thirteen formations, and three city-dwellers.

Among those who participated in the color exhibition of the plastic artist Faisal Taj Al-Ser. Faisal grew up and raised in Port Sudan, where he studied all his pre-university stages before attending an Egyptian university and obtaining Clarius Geology. The city shaped it with its volatile weather classes, with its high humidity, high heat, warmth and coolness. He turned his business office into a painter breathing and puffing inside his walls of color, and turned his house into a gallery. Citizens had this meeting with him.

Technical and formative momentum in Port Sudan, does war play a role in this?
Of course. We were drawing before the war, of course, but we felt it was time for art to make a direct and continuous connection with the public -- its a kind of resistance and victory for the will of life.

Several exhibitions over the past weeks in Port Sudan, what is your assessment of them in terms of organization and content?
The exhibitions were organized in very difficult circumstances, but insisting on their success kept us going. We learn from mistakes and evaluate our work constantly.

Plastic arts exhibitions attract a specific quality of pioneers, have those exhibitions broken this trend and opened up to a wider audience?
The truth is the public question is the fundamental problem in our countrys art exhibitions. When the countrys circumstances add up to it, the issue becomes more complex. Were trapping color and waiting. We have to be patient.

I participated in several paintings in the last color exhibition, what did the art scene look like in this exhibition?
Colour Gallery was a success. We started five artists and now we are sixteen artists and artists. This diversity added richness to the experience. From the beginning, attracting the largest number of artists was for us an essential goal.

Drawing and shaping is an individual work, in its nature, is the collective exhibitions serving the artist in his message, or is the message common in the case of collective exhibitions?
There are multiple messages that are directed under the art message in general and there is no problem with this. I trust the recipients ability to sort and evaluate the various messages that reach him. In fact, this implicates the recipient for a maybe aesthetic adventure, or lets say that the artist finishes the artwork and when he shows it starts again. My goal personally is to incite the recipient to explore this pleasure.

What did he want to say?
The colour of his basic message is continuity and triumph for the will of life. Brush is our fragile tool to achieve this, broken at any moment. But before it breaks, it has opened a path for the future. Thats what we wanted to say.
