In 1988, he graduated from the Faculty of fine Arts in Damascus. Today he hosts several exhibits in the Middle East, Europe and America.

Yaziji says his style and techniques are somewhat “outside the box”.

“I am not a mono artist. Sometimes I do painting or sculpturing. At other times, I do murals, or ceramics. Paper and pencil remain my loyal companions and witnesses of my daily life,” he said. “I always seek to pull the plug on the life of my characters. By doing so, they come to existence again in different shapes and ethics,” said Yaziji.
