Marwan paints images of human beings, very subjective images never
individual portraits. The person portrayed is always exemplary ,unique and
anonymous all at once. Through his participaton in and identification with
human suffering, Marwan's abstract seiges of colour do not remain detached
aesthetic, consumptional ecstasies, but reflect through a commitment that
is essentially artistic, dramas of the single individual's inner life.
