Hassan Sharif — Untitled (Curly Copper Tube)
Hassan Sharif

Untitled (Curly Copper Tube)

2014

Hassan Sharif's "Untitled (Curly Copper Tube)" exemplifies the Emirati artist's conceptual approach to sculpture, where industrial materials are transformed through simple, repetitive gestures into meditative objects. The work demonstrates Sharif's interest in process and material properties, using the copper tube's inherent qualities of malleability and form to create a work that bridges minimalism and craft traditions. Created as part of his extensive exploration of found and industrial materials, the sculpture reflects his pioneering role in establishing contemporary art practices in the Gulf region during the 1980s and beyond.
