About Artist
Hakim Kabbaj
Covering subjects such as landscapes, city scenes, and abstract portraiture, Hakim has a dark and emotion-evoking style that broadly isolates subjects against a minimalist backdrop. His work often combines bold contrast, rich colors and lifted shadows pushed towards the blue spectrum, which give the photos a theme that is both distinct and futuristic in its nature.
