STATEMENT OF WORK

 

Abed focuses on bringing both a textural intimacy and a poetic illumination to each object and figure. He works to carefully unveil the truth and energy buried within each pear skin or fallen branch or strand of hair. With a capacious eye for detail, Abed presents figures and sweeping landscapes within hubs of color and reveals a absent narrative: one drawn from all things compositionally absent; thus the language within Abed's work encourages each viewer to cooperatively build his or her own visual account.
