« After a passage through abstraction, he is currently illustrating more figurative work that focuses on the face and the body. He exclusively uses ink on paper or canvas, sometimes mixed with acrylic, preferring black and white. This selection gives his work a great unity of writing. Haggard eyes, body fragmented… Wissem Ben Hassine started from the observation of crowds in the subway and progressed beyond appearances to give flesh to his questioning on the origin of the world. Even when the innocence deserts childhood, the rebirth symbolized here is by fertility, birth and women stripped of all artifice. » Brigitte Camus
