Majd Alloush draws his geography by tracing the changes faced by cities worldwide due to wars and
displacement. His creative practice challenges the notion of boundaries in concept, content, and
medium by exploring psychology, geopolitics, society and environment to paint a more realistic
picture of a world undergoing fast and radical changes. In Con-figuring (2020), a collection of 100 cubes of raw material experimentation such
as cement – remnants of destruction – Majd unveils the reality of several global cities that suffered
great devastation because of war.
