Nadim Abbas

Abbas received his BFA from London's Chelsea College of Art & Design and MPhil from the University of Hong Kong Department of Comparative Literature.

[1] Abbas's practice includes heavily researched installation and sculptural works that play on the psychological patterns of everyday objects and kitsch.

[2] His work draws thematic inspiration from literature, science and psychology.

[3] Other works included are "Marine Lover" at ART HK 11, and a collaboration with Saamlung Gallery on a project for the 2012 Hong Kong International Art Fair.

[5] Abbas' concept called "Apocalypse Postponed" drew inspiration from Science Fiction films, 20th century military architecture and defensive plans such as The Atlantic Wall and the Swiss National Redoubt, creating a bunker-like environment, constructed from sand bags, with blacked-out windows within a 7000 square foot space.
