About the Item

Mohamad does not use titles for his photographs. Such naming or framing can constrain or shape a viewer’s engagement with an image. Without such titles, his imagery conjures imaginative spaces, movement and flow, worlds without the constraints of gravity, a visionary place of the mind or an otherworldly cosmos. He is fascinated with streams of light he stretches with the long exposures of his camera. The visual results of his photographic processes immediately recall a futuristic world of imaginative spaces or mystical presences of light and energy that some would label Afrofuturism. Mohamed’s way of working is to focus on light and shadow, color and surface and composition first – all the work that goes into making -- before titles, epigrams, legends, films and sounds that place them in an African/Diaspora or Afrofuturist frame after. This image measures 18”h x 34”w. Photograph can be printed in larger sizes. This photograph is unframed for $3700 and shipped tubed. Mohamed has a 30-year career as an architect and photographer. Peaceful and elegant with the restraint of colors and lines.
