As one observes Hani's continuous artistic transformation (reflecting a deepening artistic maturity) through his paintings, the contorted figure is assimilated, liberating the painting from its centralization and becoming characterized by a new sensation. The colors start to fade, becoming deeper, and the lines grow more complex in rhythm. Their strength is no longer instilled by the presence and strength of the pigments, but rather by their absence, allowing subtlety and mystery. Thus the painting is more open to contemplation and becomes more abstract in formation and color, allowing a greater freedom for the suffocated “self” of the artist, not only to grow, but to assimilate with the act of painting itself. The “self” becomes the painting after being imprisoned by it.
