Meet Hani
Hani Shihada is a New York City–based sidewalk artist who has spent more than three decades creating public art directly on the street.
Trained in classical techniques and influenced by the madonnari tradition of Italy, his work brings fine art out of galleries and into everyday life. Using chalk and pastel, Hani draws directly on pavement, transforming sidewalks into temporary spaces for reflection, curiosity, and connection.
His work is created live, in public view, and shaped as much by the environment as by the drawing itself. Weather, time, and the people who pass through become part of the finished piece.
