Wafaa and his borderless map of Iraq on his back |
From couple of weeks of ago the world spoke about
that art professor who decided in to install a camera at the back of his head . Most people called madness and a cheap attempt for publicity. What is interesting in that news was that that art professor is actually an Arab , he is
Iraqi Wafaa Bilal. That is not the first time Bilal uses his body for the sake of art , earlier this year in March he turned his back
in to a borderless map of Iraq with dots to represent the Iraqi and American causalities. What is more interesting is that his 3rd I experience is being showcased at
the Arab museum of modern arts in Qatar. Yes Qatar that is taking place Dubai more and more.
You can see what the 3rd I of Bilal is capturing from scenes in that live website :

3rd i before its launch by 9 hours |
The third eye concept exists in world cultures yet
as mystical concept nothing more , nothing else.
We say in the Arab world “Arts are madness” and Bilal for sure is one hell of a mad artist.
