Abdullah M. I. Syed's creative interventions transform sporting objects and memorabilia into poetic curiosities, transcending personal, geographical, linguistic, and cultural barriers. While reflecting his migratory experiences and global observations, Syed explores the unifying force of sport in bridging cultures and fostering dialogue. Reminiscent of a trophy cabinet, Cabinet of Curiosities embodies personal memories and narratives showcasing familial lifelong engagement with sport and physical activity.
