‘Rawas’s complex multi-media collages speak to the contemporary experience of fragmentation that is at once universal, and, one suspects, distinctly Middle Eastern. Combining a pop sensibility akin to Warhol, the obsessiveness of Joseph Conell, a visual density echoing Robert Rauschenberg and an acute wit all of his own, Rawas’s work is haunting, surprising, and seductive at once.’ Helena Reckitt, Director of Exhibitions, Atlanta Contemporary Art Centre
