Self-Decipher. 2018
Roman Theatre, Amman. Duration 1 hour.
Performance, documentation and relics of the performance.
In this performance, the artist used mosaic technique on his own body. With help of graduates from MIMAR (Madaba Institute for Mosaic Art and Restoration), creating a piece where he slowly takes off each fragment of mosaic (representing the removal of each piece of self-identification), in search of the essence of humanity, and what makes us equal to one-another.
The artist plays a soundtrack with different voices of individuals speaking in different languages whilst he takes off the mosaic pieces from his body, representing the deconstruction of his cultural and political identity, in a reminder of the importance of not losing contact with nature as a developing being.
