Abd Tammaa


Abd’s practice involves experimentation, self-reflection, and dialogue with peers. The resulting works manifest as installations, incorporating sculpture, video, sound, and text. He is also interested in community-building and discussions/discourses around "What-If" scenarios. Abd explores themes of indoctrination, studying how knowledge is produced, formed, and shared within communities.
