Schizophrenia 1

- 24.0 x 32.0 cm
Halim Al-Karim (1956 –)
Explore the evocative art of Halim Al-Karim, Iraqi artist known for conceptual & abstract photography exploring identity, memory, displacement, and exile. Exhibited globally, his mixed media works offer a poignant reflection on trauma & belonging.
Al-Karim’s approach to image-making is as an outward projection of his inner-consciousness and a visual manifestation of spiritual awakening and serenity. His evasive dream-like images evoke a range of instinctual emotive responses, the ability of true perception existing as a preternatural power within each of us, which can be understood and harnessed through the pursuit of metaphysical enlightenment.Some of the photographs Al Karim presents beneath a tautly stretched layer of silk fabric that operates as both a physical veil masking the portraits and a metaphorical filter or screen. This ’barrier’ between viewer and image can be conceived as a liminal space, a transcendental portal between being and becoming, where the mystical properties of change take place.
