		Wissam Al Haddad
		Born in Baghdad 1968, Wissam Al Haddad graduated from the College of Fine Arts, Baghdad University and specialized in ceramics. He has extensively exhibited in Baghdad, Jordan, Cairo, UAE, Qatar, Italy and Ireland and received many international awards in festivals and biennials. His work can be found in museums and institutions in Arabic as well as in foreign countries.

Wissam
is known for his distinguished style in emphasizing
the beauty of the Arabic letter, by combining
the old with the modern, working in a very creative
way blending pottery, sculpture, painting and
calligraphy. To show the original colours of
the clay, the artist doesn’t glaze the
letters. He introduces new materials and abstract
shapes to his ceramics whilst honouring calligraphy
as a classic art.
