Hiba Abdallah’s neon sculpture lights up McMaster

Mathew Sandford — Fri, 25 Sep 2020 15:00:47 +0000

A new neon sculpture by Hiba Abdallah is lighting up the McMaster Museum of Art. Commissioned and conceived in 2019, Abdallah’s white neon sculpture has now been installed above the museum entrance. As is typical of her recent practice, the artist uses text as a jumping off point for questions, reflection, and discussion about specific, surrounding communities. In this case, her glowing, cursive text reads, “we remain profoundly and infinitely connected.”
