Mohammed Alhaj
Displacement 3 — 2020

“Mohammed’s characters feel anonymous. The figures appear of varying origins — endless and with infinite colour.” Shada Al Safadi, Visual Artist

Gazan artist Mohammed Alhaj.

“Mohammed’s characters feel anonymous. The figures appear of varying origins — endless and with infinite colour. They are shadow characters with no rights in soil, sea, or sky. The displaced and alienated move through hazy colour spaces as if from a dream. They are escaping a brutal and painful reality in a desperate search for peace.” Shada Al Safadi, Visual Artist
