Beskrivelse af kunstværket

Abdul-Rahman Abdullah is a Perth based multi-disciplinary artist and commercial sculptor. He holds a BA Fine Arts from both the University of Melbourne and Curtin University. Abdul-Rahman describes his practice as exploring ‘a sense of identity that emerges from a cultural heritage that is both Muslim and seventh generation Australian’. Working primarily in sculpture, drawing and installation, Abdullah-Rahman takes a figurative approach to contextualise subjective memories as physical objects and installations. His processes use a range of mediums including clay, resin, silicone and bronze in conjunction with found objects and materials, as well as extensive use of technical mould making processes to achieve highly resolved pieces. Big Jihad explores the meaning of ‘the greater jihad’, which in Islam is the internal struggle with one’s nafs (the ego or commanding self). Abdullah describes this concept as the recognition of one’s humanity as forming the basis of his relationship to Islam.

Kunstnerens biografi

abdul-rahman abdullah was born in port kembla, nsw in 1977 and his family moved to perth when he was very young. he studied at the victorian college for the arts (2010) and attained his bachelor of art (fine art) from the curtin university in 2012. his work, which explores definitions of identity and belonging, emerges from his muslim heritage that is both seventh-generation australian and malay. within these cultural parameters he explores a personal engagement with the migrant experience of his mother, the ongoing implications of his australian father’s early conversion to islam and “the mutable understanding of childhood values in the present tense.”
