Selim Abdullah [...] preserves the existential need in the beauty of the composition (hence in the light), in the materials and in the shaping of his work. His art is balanced on the cusp between the terrifying and the glorious - as though, via the artistic act, the creative process, he was shaping that moment when Fate would be overcome, could be defeated - on behalf of us all, but particularly for History's victims.
