The Link is Light House Arts Centre's arts hub and incubator.

We are excited to present our first official art exhibition, featuring artist Mohammed Aadil.

Join us to meet Mohammed and learn more about his work on February 28th between 5pm-9pm, on the 3rd floor at 1800 Argyle St.

Here are some words from Mohammed, who has curated and co produced this exhibition:

“My name is Mohammed Aadil. I am a third year undergraduate student majoring in Fine Arts- Drawing/Painting, at NSCAD. Through my works, I aim to reflect on my locality, worldly issues and personal background. Primarily, my creative process uses all types of painting mediums and medias. All my life, I lived and grew up in the United Arab Emirates. The Emirati culture has heavily influenced the content and imagery in my artistic oeuvre. I am also an entrepreneur, I run a NSCAD based club called Emerging Expressions. Through which, emerging artists are given a chance to share their artistic voice through exhibitions and podcasts. Currently, I am the VP External for SUNSCAD. I also love writing poetry, through which becomes the main source of inspiration for my artistic oeuvre.

To talk about specific themes and worldly topics, I use symbolic imagery in my works. I really feel that I can reflect on the world around me, through symbolic imagery. World is my debut solo show in my emerging artistic career. Thank you LHAC for giving me this wonderful space to share my creative oeuvre with the Halifax art scene and the world. I am happy to see you all at my opening and I am excited to hear all your wonderful thoughts on my solo show.

Thanks and lots of love,

Aadil
