Artist Omar Kamal regards art as the only knowledge in the world in which the artist is always in a state of truth.  Omar uses color in his work as a translation of life. He tells a story of a parallel world in which shapes, colors and vocabulary transcend so that the paintings depict life, truth, love and beauty. The subjects of his work are inspired from everyday life, such as religious ceremonies and rituals as well as weddings. The way Omar perceives art enables him to paint with impartiality and love.
