Homage to Lutfiyah, my sister in Al Yarmouk Camp (2013)

The current exhibition views Abdi’s creative work from a personal point of view, inquiring into his sensitivity to material qualities, the diverse usage of fabrics, building materials, personal and historical accessories which are present throughout his work along his artistic career.

In the current exhibition we have chosen to concentrate on three important bodies of work: works that portray fabrics, folds and tent wings; personal and political portraits; and drawers that carry personal as well as cultural secrets.
