My Dream

 

mixed media installation: 2 canvases (200 x 300, 200 x 150 cm), sketch book of drawings (42 x 30 cm), and 2 ladders; west wall and roof of the A. M. Qattan Foundation, Ramallah

 

There are many dreams, but the beauty is in the crossing

At that very moment, we only win!

We are the beauty of God on earth, and the color.

What I do is just re-installation

Everything is there, in front of everybody, and everybody is able  

But who will begin

I'm there, flying in the sky, but it doesn’t feel like flying in nothing, it’s a feeling of the existence of the great space, there has been always a large white surface in front of me that doesn’t end
