For
NuArt Aberdeen 2022 Mohamed L’Ghacham enjoyed his first time in Scotland, getting a warm welcome in Aberdeen:
“I love this place, I love Aberdeen and the feedback’s been so nice,” said Mohamed, “A lot of people were taking photos – they were super nice people. I’m super happy to stay here and for the muralist, the connection with the people from the city is super important.”
Coming to Aberdeen wasn’t just a case of “paint a wall and go home” but there was a lot more “dialogue” happening with the curators, other artists as well as Aberdeen street art lovers.
For his Aberdeen wall, Mohamed decided to depict a family around a dinner table, an important “family moment” is universal all around the world.
But to really make it fit the Aberdeen space, Mohamed was inspired by nearby objects and their colours. For instance, he chose blue as a background colour because of a close-by sign.
