Apostata Rex (selection)

Identity does not belong to nations, religions or cultures. In a connected world, where information and choices are in a perpetual flow, ‘who I am’ is forever shifting. It is mercurial and unrealistic to define. The search for identity is ultimately leading to the discovery of a universal self: One that is connected, scattered and dissatisfied.

‘Apostata Rex’, painted in eight Arab cities over a 20 years period, is a reflection of post-identity where self-image is abstract and in constant flux.
