Huvil
My name is Mahmood and I use huvil as a street art name, the philosophy behind the name is changing the idea streetart in Bahrain from a negative vandalism to beautiful and positive graffiti and murals. I do illustration, graphic design and everything that goes under the street art field. I started in 2007-2008. I focus more on big murals than sketches and artworks on canvases . Calligraphy is what I love the most. I basically break the Arabic calligraphy rules by twisting the letters and creating my own calligraphy out of it , and have my own style of Arabic calligraphy , I usually use arabic traditional inspiration in my artworks. My aim is to build and rise the street art seen in Bahrain, make it something respectful and trying to show the positive side of Bahrain through street art.
