Sayed Sattar Hasan (b.1979) is a British-born artist living in Oslo, Norway, with an MA from Goldsmiths, London.

His practice is multidisciplinary and crosses visual arts, hand crafts and public art. Under his Norwegian alter ego Hasansen, Hasan explores the hybridisation of cultural expression through object making. This can be found through long term projects such as Hasansens Fabrikk in collaboration with Oslo Museum, which critique the idea of cultural icons through the production of new material forms.

Dialogue is central to Hasan’s practice and he is co-founder of the PRAKSIS Development Forum (PDF) at PRAKSIS, which is one of the longest running artist discussion groups in Oslo.
