Yusuf is a contemporary abstract artist. His art is organic in nature and is influenced by his love of the natural world and the world around him today.
His work consists of applying many layers of paint to form a rich base texture and then to use and manipulate simple abstract marks with a reduced colour palette to create mainly two dimensional shapes seemingly suspended in their own universe.
There is no single interpretation for what appears, shapes interact with each other and dialogue is played out on the canvas. His aim is to present the viewer with challenging images, to make them part of the whole artistic process.
Over the last few years Yusuf has developed sculptures showing the endless possibilities of interacting mass and light combining concrete with aged metals.
