We are delighted to announce Majd Abdel Hamid's first solo exhibition in Lebanon, Ode to the Sea.

Ode to the Sea is an ongoing body of work—a travel journal of various cities and islands around the Mediterranean Sea. The first chapter focuses on the Kerkennah Islands in Tunisia, the second on Beirut, and the third on Anafi Island in Greece. In each place, materials like fabric, soap, found objects, and threads are gathered.

This travel journal evolves into a collection of photo books, sculptures, collages on cotton paper, videos.

The narratives emerge through visual and material compositions, creating a dialogue between sensory experiences and memories. Details such as shifting light, color studies, shades, and subtle impressions converge to evoke an ongoing, nonverbal diary.
