About the reason for choosing this title, he said: “My focus on the bird’s wing as an artistic term comes from the environment in which I grew up.
“A variety of materials were used and presented in a smooth and innovative way.”
“I consider this exhibition the beginning of similar future ideas that I will present in the same style,” said Al Namma inviting public to visit the exhibition and get acquainted with it.
