How I See the World
2014
A vibrant and deeply personal composition by Abdullah Qandeel, "How I See the World" combines acrylic paint with the unconventional incorporation of matches on canvas, creating a layered and textured visual experience. The use of matches — objects associated with both destruction and illumination — speaks to a dual perspective on existence, suggesting that the artist's worldview is shaped by the tension between light and ruin. Qandeel's work invites the viewer to consider how personal history and symbolic material can transform a canvas into a window into the artist's singular consciousness.
