Profile Information

About Me:
Abu Jafar is an acclaimed leading artist and Philosopher of the arts. This year Jafar been invited to Exhibit his sculpture at the Botanic Garden, University of Leicester, from late June until early September. Concepts for the 2008 summer show is 'a sense of place' - sculptural work that is responsive to its environment, for example through its use of natural imagery or a concept that draws on nature as a stimulus.
-Curator Helen Foster.

Painting Under The Blue - Abu Jafar creates large canvases that are riots of colour, yet conjure simple images and impression - rain dripping slowly down a windowpane or the colours of an optimistic summer''s day.

Jafar’s latest project is an out door installation form of sculpture with 2011 Dot is a site-specific installation it is nearly 135KM long, along side on Hadrian's Wall from west end to the east end. It is a World Heritage Sites (WHS) are places of outstanding universal importance to humankind, both cultural and natural. 2000 years of history, 25 roman forts & museums, 150 miles long, 118 circular walks.

Since 2006 Jafar has created some very unusual work in collaboration with Ewa Wawrzyniak including The Wonder Burghley Sculpture at Burghley Sculpture Park, Burghley, Stamford, UK 2007. It was one of the largest sculptures in the Park. The Sculpture with 12 wooden structures, line Drawing, blown glass, stone and Nature.

Jafar takes his inspiration from psychology, philosophy, classical music as well as day-to-day human existence. By producing art that is far from traditional, He is actively attempting to shatter staid ideas of the past regarding art; his art is the synthesis of colour, element and presentation twisted into unusual form. In late January 1995 he moved from London to Brockhall Village at the heart of the Ribble Valley, Lancashire. Then 1997 He moved to London Carpenters Road Studio and 1998 to Trinity Buoy Wharf studio until 2001. He is an Associate Member of the Royal British Society of Sculptors.
