16th Young Artists' Art Exhibition

M. Hasan Morshed: Generating awareness through art

Ershad Kamol

Though M. Hasan Morshed's background is on Oriental Art, for his first installation work titled "Jadu Ghar fake behind the trust",Morshed has won 'Honourable Mention' at the 16th Young Artists' Art Exhibition. The exhibition, organised by the Department of Fine Arts of Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy, is currently on at the National Art Gallery.

The bamboo, paper mache and clay made installation features the image of a child, who is looking through a hole of a big egg, watching images of artefacts and demons.

Morshed said, "The white big egg is a symbol, which addresses our contemporary problem: we are not aware of our rights. The recent incident regarding valuable Bangladeshi artefacts could have been avoided, if we were more aware.""In fact it's not an isolated incident. Shady activities are going on almost everywhere in the society," he added.

Morshed further informed that the image of the child represents our future generation. "When the future generation will look back, what would their observation be? What kind of country we are leaving for them, where people disregard the values of national assets for minor interest?" he said.

On the reason behind participating at the exhibition with an installation, though his background is on Oriental Art, Morshed said, "Installation is becoming popular all over the world and I'm interested to work in the medium."
"There is no scope of studying installation academically in our country at present. But watching installations done by the senior artists, I'm trying to learn the medium," he added.
A BFA final year student of Oriental Art at the Institute of Fine Arts, Morshed became fascinated with art in his childhood. He learnt the basics from his father.
Morshed hopes to pursue higher education in art abroad. He wishes to contribute to the welfare of the society through his artistic endeavours. "My intention is not only to address the problems of the society but also to show a solution," claimed Morshed on his approach to art.

It is well known to everyone that art refers to a diverse range of human activities, creations, and expressions that are appealing to the senses or emotions of a human individual. Art is created by people and sometimes neglected by people. Art can change the life.

"Chobir Hat is an online art club, which works to develop and improve the relationship between people and art. And we believe it is a platform for the Bangladeshi artists. We want to spread our fine artwork through this group. I hope all our group members will stay with us in this never-ending journey through colour. We just want to create a relation between artists, their works and art lovers. And Chobir Hat is our first step to make this relationship," said Fatema Abedin Nazla of Chobir Hat, a famous face book group, about an exhibition titled 'Friendship Art Exhibition,' which was held at the Drik Gallery in the capital recently.
