Dr Yousef Ahmad Al-Maiari

In his work, the wisdom of a physician, the eloquence of a writer, the sensitivity of a poet and the vision of a painter become one. Words take on a heartbeat, colour finds its voice and creativity becomes a mirror held up to the human spirit, revealing its depths, preserving its trace and giving beauty both a voice and a face.

Physician, writer, poet and painter. His books explore the mysteries of love, search out the meaning of life and reflect on the mark that time leaves on the soul. His paintings give meaning its colour and feeling its form.
