I am
first and foremost a Human, then a Woman, then an Arab, then an
Iraqi, then a Canadian, then a student, then an artist. All of
these factors play a role in my thoughts. My artwork is derived
from all of the questions that come about when trying to figure
out all of these labels, all of these categories, all of these
constructions. The instructions I give to you while viewing the
gallery is to consider the context. Consider all the elements
around you right now, consider the situation we are in, and
place yourself outside of the box. Enjoy.
But remember.... This is (still) all a Construction. |

The Squaring of
the Circle: Yowm Il Qiyama Part 1
December, 2003
Oil paint on masonite
3 feet all across
According to Sufi Islam, the Squaring of the circle represents
the end of times,
Yowm Il Qiyama (Judgment Day). The circle (the Universe)
cannot spin any
longer and the square is held firmly in place and at an
imbalance (Man).
