His practice explores transitional spaces \u2014 between presence and absence, the intimate and the symbolic \u2014 through a refined visual language rooted in gesture, silence, and ritual.<\/p>\nFormally trained in graphic design,\u00a0Manar<\/span>\u00a0has developed a multidisciplinary approach that integrates narrative, composition, and movement. He has taken part in numerous festivals and residencies since 2017, including SbaghaBagha, Jidar, Khaliya, and Skefkef, contributing both as an illustrator and muralist within Morocco\u2019s vibrant independent scene and integrated French scene from ZikZac festival.<\/p>\nAlongside his artistic work, he is also active in cultural mediation. He holds a Master\u2019s degree in Cultural Mediation of the Arts and currently collaborates as a mediator for the Rencontres du 9e Art, the comics festival of Aix-en-Provence.<\/p>\n
Whether in editorial drawings or large-scale public artworks, his images are acts of attention: to bodies, to memory, to what escapes the spoken word. Each piece is conceived as a threshold \u2014 not just aesthetic, but emotional and cultural.<\/p>\n<\/div>
