Abstraction and Deceleration

Without formulating answers, Palestinian artist Majd Abdel Hamid expresses these questions in humble and most often abstract forms. He does not seek to accuse, disclose guilt, or ask for collective reparations. He also does not gloss over the pain inflicted on people by tragedy; instead, he seems to take action while also keeping a certain distance. He is not trying to respond to history or topical issues. In his work, he asks us to slow down, to take the time required to think critically and awaken a poetic imagination.
