ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ  [Peace be upon you]

I'm Nahim, a self taught artist living in London. And a recent graduate in BA Architecture. BYNVHIM is my creative outlet turned art business.

But BYNVHIM is more than just a single person behind a brand, it's a family. It's the endless amount of support, faith and commitment built through a community which allows me to communicate in a way that others may not see as the norm.

Growing up, speaking was never my greatest skill, but where I lacked in communicating with words, I found my voice and gift through the visual arts through the permission of Allah. I find that an image can speak and evoke a lot more at times than words themselves. It is through this that I hope that some of my artwork tells a story that you can find yourself relating to.

I've come across many comments from people highlighting that art can never be a career, but by having a strong drive and passion in what you love doing, anything is possible. Allah has gifted us with this one life, so use it to the best of your ability to shine and find excellence in whatever you do to attain success in this world and the Hereafter.

The journey has been a difficult yet rewarding experience so far, but what excites me the most, is growing through it all with confidence and self belief to keep on going.

Thank you all for your support and prayers.

BYNVHIM
