Nothing Old, Nothing New
14 September – 31 December 2021
We introduce artist Haitham Ennasr's online project Nothing Old, Nothing New, consisting of a collection of experimental interactive video games installed onsite, drawings, text, and objects developed over six years. Ennasr's project plays on the relationship between capitalism, colonialism, landscape depictions, real estate development, and folklore, reappropriating them to envision a revolutionary utopia.
Haitham Ennasr is an artist and interactive designer. Much of his work can be viewed through the vernacular of science fiction, folklore, labor, and intersectional revolutionary utopias. It includes drawings, paintings, sculpture, videogames, text, performance, and has been exhibited at Alt Space Loop (Seoul), Sursock Museum (Beirut), the Museum of the Moving Image (New York), and the Arab American University (Jenin).
