Sami Zubi’s concern for human survival and development is the
driving force behind his work. He believes that art is a vehicle
and powerful tool. Choosing specific materials to express the
social and political conditions of Arab society is essential to
his work. Recently, his work has begun to reflect certain Arab
aesthetics and explore particular
socio-political events and situations. His materials are derived
from authentic Arab traditions and have been known to include
bread and mascara.
