About this artwork

Seen captures the fragmented presence of the self in today’s world. Figures overlap in spectral layers,part visible, part vanishing like echoes caught between physical presence and digital shadow. Their gestures stretch outward, searching for recognition, for proof of existence in a society where to be “seen” is both validation and surveillance.

Al Waari reflects on the paradox of modern visibility: we are hyper-exposed and yet remain unseen in our truth. Multiplicity of form speaks to identities fractured by technology, performance, and societal expectation. It is not a single portrait but a chorus of selves each demanding to be acknowledged.

For collectors, Seen offers a mirror to our times haunting, resonant, and urgent. It belongs to spaces where art is not just admired, but questioned, as it confronts us with the complexity of being visible in an age that blurs intimacy and spectacle.
