He graduated from the faculty of Art Education in 1993 and got a master’s degree in painting in 2002, an artist and researcher known for his exploration of the human face as a central theme in his work.

His art reflects a metaphorical world, often veiled in a hazy atmosphere, where the human face serves as a profound subject with both explicit and hidden meanings. Mahmoud's recent exhibition features color chip collages, bordered by contrasting colors, emphasizing mass over detailed features. His works convey a sense of hopelessness, with bodies covered in thick brushstrokes resembling a display screen without a signal. The flatness of the faces encourages viewers to engage with details, while the artist plays with the illusion of a third dimension, creating a unique interactive experience between the viewer and the artwork.
