On the Wall: Age of Glitter and Deception
- Sumayyah Samaha
- Sumayyah Samaha
In her installation Age of Glitter and Deception for On the Wall Sumayyah Samaha addresses what she calls “the absurdity of our time” by utilizing lustrous but inexpensive aluminum foil to symbolize the disturbing hunger for material prosperity at any cost. Samaha’s identity above all is that of an artist. Following her own natural flow and expression she works abstractly, and over the years, she has built an extensive vocabulary with which she weaves her visual story.
