Abdul-Rahman Abdullah is an Australian artist whose practice explores the intersections of identity, culture and nature. Working primarily in sculpture and installation, his work has been described as magic realism, creating poetic interventions with the space it occupies.

While his own experiences as a Muslim Australian of mixed ethnicity provide a starting point, Abdullah negotiates shared understandings of individual identity, new mythologies and marginalised outlooks in a multicultural context. Living and working in rural Western Australia, Abdullah provides a unique perspective across intersecting and disparate communities.

Abdul-Rahman has exhibited his work at institutions across Australia including Museum of Contemporary Art, Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Perth Institute of Contemporary Art, Art Gallery of South Australia, Art Gallery of Western Australia, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Newcastle Art Gallery and Pataka Art + Museum (NZ).

Jaimie Carpenter's thoughts on Abdullah's 'The men who sold lies' - “At first glance this piece appears to be something that it isn't, much in the same way as Lycett's paintings.”
