Abdul Abdullah, Chin up face the day, 2024, oil on linen, 162.5 x 137 cm
Witness is Abdul Abdullah’s second solo exhibition in Singapore and his sixth with the gallery.
Renowned for his work that interrogates otherness, displacement and identity, Abdullah’s approach is always shifting as it is compelling, from vivid self-portraits to thought-provoking public installations and anthropomorphised caricatures.
Witness debuts a new series that expands on Abdullah’s two critical explorations: the tensions between perception of a person or group and the realities of their lived experience; and of the boundaries and the physical, geographical, political, and spiritual metamorphoses we undergo as we journey across them.
