Hereford First Friday: Omar Majeed

The artist

Omar Majeed works in a variety of media and makes biographically informed work in which the pathos of the confessional element is often sweetened with absurd humour.

He works intuitively in an interdisciplinary practice informed by surrealism and Dada in a postmodern context. Much of his work is marked by an expediency that can be seen as flippant but is in fact an existential gesture.

Despite spiritual leanings he has questions about purpose and identity that infuse his work.
