The art reflected a new era for Tunisia, celebrating Modernism and a post-colonial era reflecting new political ideals. Bellagha trained as an artist in Tunisia and subsequently a craftsman in Paris. This foundation allowed him to explore art from a global perspective, leading to his exhibiting at the 29th Venice Biennale in 1958. During his lifetime, he also exhibited in several group shows across Europe, the UAE and Tunisia.
